Galway hot favourites with the bookies

Galway have been installed as red-hot favourites with the bookies after their triumph over Waterford, but Murphy claims this is insulting to a Kilkenny team that took the honours last year. “If I was doing the odds on this match it wouldn’t be far off a 50-50 match. There are never more than a few points between the sides when they meet and typically it is only one or two. The burden of expectation is worrying, but we cannot control what people think. “On any given Sunday a team needs things to fall into place on the day. We have prepared as well as we could and now it is up to the lads to go out and show the country how good they are. We believe in them and hopefully they will do themselves, their families, and their clubs proud this weekend.”
