Attractive challenge match on the borderline as Cats meet Tipp in part three
This years National Hurling League Final has received mixed reviews. Most people like myself thought it was a cracking contest between two of hurling kingpins, it was also a much needed boost for the code ahead of the championship. However, there seems to be a minority out there who think the game was too physical. Okay, a couple of tackles shouldn't have happened but these have been dealt with since. Eddie Brennan and Hugh Maloney received a months suspension each when the CCCC met last week. Both players will take it on the chin, simply because they wont miss a championship game.

Shefflin- It's all about just doing it on the day and between the white lines
All-time Senior Hurling Championship top-scorer Henry Shefflin says that this Sunday’s All-Ireland final offers an unusual pairing, despite both Kilkenny and Tipperary being two of the superpowers of hurling.
2009- another super year for the Cats
The year 2009 has come to an end, so it is time to reflect on what was once again another brilliant year for Kilkenny hurling at both county and club level. It goes without saying that for everyone the highlight at county level was the first Sunday in September when the super Cats landed the incredible four-in-a-row after a pulsating final against the old enemy Tipperary.
