Such a buzz as Sharlene Mawdsley returns home to dear old Newport town🥁 half of Tipperary is in the town park to greet her & the other half follow her in, great buzz about 👏
Good to see the tipp people behind the hurlers again. Munster will be hoping next year.
Thurles is gone mad for the All Ireland champions 🏆 #hurling #AllIreland
Ah this is class 👌 timing, anticipation and quality 👏 #allirelandfootballfinal
@Woolberto @Kerry_Official @radiokerry @RTEgaa Patience is the name of the game .
🗣️ "12 months ago the feeling was totally, totally different" 🗣️ "It was said to me that I could go off and plan my holidays early.." Stephen Gleeson chats in-depth to Tipperary #Hurling manager, Liam Cahill, after a nine-point win against Waterford in the Munster Championship.
"The players have stuck by me..." been interviewing Liam Cahill before and after matches, rain or shine for over a decade. Many players he managed at minor, U20, 21 & now shone today for Tipperary at senior level. Coaching pays off 🔥 full interview 🎥 @offtheball #hurling
#allirelandfinal weekends should be #GAA celebration & festival weekends with major fanzones like other sports do rather than just pub culture - tv stations should be interviewing fans all day, reliving glory days, tactical analysis shows, live music... Could be so much more..
West Tipperary senior hurling final was a fantastic occasion with the pipe band setting the tone for the game; in the end Clonoulty beat Cashel 2-17 to 1-16 with Tipperary hurler Robert Doyle setting up Stephen Ferncombe for the winning goal near the full time whistle #hurling
Same in Clonmel @StephenGleeson_ for the Swan & Mullinahone, the split season is fantastic.
Massive crowd in for the west Tipp hurling final half an hour before throw in this evening, loads here were roaring on Tipperary last weekend but now its all about club - the split season is working a treat 🙌 #hurling #GAA #Tipperary

Amazing few days working radio at the All-Ireland final from live broadcasts to interviewing legends like Eoin Kelly, Rachel Blackmore, Una Healy, Seamie, Darragh, Willie Connors & Johnny Smacks to name a few🙏 amazing too that Tipperary won minor, U20 & senior in 13 months🏆🏆🏆
The epitome of fine margins
This is a major turning point of the #AllIreland on 45 minutes with Cork a point up 1-16 to 0-18.. Cork shot hits post twice (no Seanie O Leary or John Fitzgibbon there) back into play, down other end for Cork keeper to knock it out. Tipp goal 1-18 to 1-16. Led from there....
"The High King" of Ireland 👏 Liam Cahill did an incredible job to turn the ship around as bainesteoir with this Tipperary team 💪 gonna be class to see the Liam McCarthy cup get to matches, schools & parishes over the coming weeks 🔥 #hurling
The Mighty Liam Cahill #CongratulationsTipperary

The nearly a goal, nearly a point that no one else has been talking about ‼️‼️ #TheHurlingAnalysisShow #corkvtipp
Sensational from Darragh McCarthy striking 1-13 in an All-Ireland final... for 18 months he is the star player for winning Tipperary teams claiming a schools Harty cup, 2 Munster U20 finals, an All-Ireland U20 medal & the senior medal on Sunday 🔥 #hurling #AllIreland

Sunday was sensational for Tipperary folk & fair play to Darragh McCarthy striking 1-13 after missing out on the game against Cork earlier in the championship .. after a massive effort from Cahill & co .. tables turned quickly this summer 💪 #hurling
That roar from Tipperary supporters as well as broadcasters @StephenGleeson_ and Ronan Quirke when Darragh McCarthy buried the ball in the Cork net for Tipperary 😀 🚀💥
Noel McGrath got a serious reception when the lifted the Liam McCarthy cup to Tipperary supporters at a homecoming in Thurles for a 4th time #AllIrelandHurlingFinal #hurling
"Honest to got I would trade everything I have for one Celtic Cross.." Johnny Smacks @the2johnnies tells Stephen Gleeson at the homecoming what Tipperary hurling means to him 🔥🔥
