Saturday's Munster SHC final between Cork and Limerick will take some beating in this year's All-Ireland.
The Rebels were victorious, winning 3-2 on penalties, after they could not be separated from the Treaty after extra-time.
It put an end to the latter's hopes of seven Munster titles in a row, and made for mental scenes on the Gaelic Grounds pitch after Declan Hannon sent the final penalty wide.
Not that Limerick needed any more fire in their bellies heading into the All-Ireland series, but a video has surfaced of the Cork players singing what some might view as a classless song, with the lyrics, 'knick-knack, paddy whack, give the dog a bone, why don't Limerick fuck off home'.
To some, they will it feel it lacks class, to others it will be seen as just a bit of craic.
After the game, Cork boss Pat Ryan said: “We won by penalties against a brilliant Limerick team, do you know what I mean? This is just the start, this is just one thing.
“We move on to the All-Ireland series, the semi-finals. We know we're a really good team, [but] we saw what we were like when we were not at it three weeks ago.
“It's all to play for.
“All the lads are practising a lot, I think. Do you know what I mean? We had really, really good confidence in them. Eoin Downey [who would have taken the fifth penalty if required] probably practised more penalties than anyone.
“To be honest, we were just focused on coming up here and really going to battle with Limerick and represent the jersey, represent our people.
“The last day, the people are spending money to come up here and we didn't give them any value for money the last day.
"I think both teams gave fierce value for money to their supporters today and to everyone.”
