Kilkenny's first 35 minutes against Waterford in the 2008 All-Ireland final set a high bar with Limerick's opening stanza in the 2021 decider against Cork coming close, but Tipperary's second-half showing against the Rebels tops the lot and is the greatest half in hurling history.

Meath aims for its first All-Ireland final since 2001 after defeating Dublin, Kerry, and Galway in this year’s Championship. The team faces Donegal, coached by Jim McGuinness, who seeks a third final for his county.

Kerry's performance showcased several strong individuals, with Joe O'Connor being named man of the match after leading a dynamic team effort.

This year, the All-Ireland round-robin stages have taken an unexpected turn, with anticipation building as the teams' trajectories set the stage for a dramatic showdown.

Cork's performance in the league final against Tipperary showcased their exceptional skill. By scoring 3-16 in the first half alone, they set a high standard for themselves, overshadowing Clare's entire performance in the previous final against Kilkenny.

Johnny Culloty was a celebrated figure in Kerry GAA, remembered for his unique achievement of winning All-Ireland titles both as a goalkeeper and outfield player.

The All-Ireland semi-final featuring Cuala and Coolera Strandhill promises to showcase two first-time provincial champions, igniting excitement among fans eager for fresh competitors.
