Goals from Maurice O’Gorman, Gavin Nugent and Joey Veale helped Waterford to a nine-point 3-12 to 1-9 victory over Sigerson champs, UCC.
Tom McGlinchey's men look intent on ramming the cynical words of the close season down their critics' throats and they're certainly making mugs of us even in January after we didn't give them much of a chance in our GAA movie comparisons just a few weeks ago.
But, after their first final berth in 13 years, they've gone on and picked up the year's first piece of silverware. Perhaps we should watch this space. The Division Four men could just mean business.
Naturally, the champs earned a few plaudits on Twitter.

AFL coach claims Mayo tried to get lost star back for All-Ireland final

However, there has been a claim that Mayo made a last-ditch attempt to convince former player Oisín Mullin to return from Australia, where he has been playing […]

Big Kobe McDonald update indicates how long he’ll be in Australia
Well there goes that dream…. Despite all the evidence saying otherwise, there was still hope among Mayo fans that Kobe McDonald would stay in Ireland and forego his contract with AFL side St Kilda. His rise has been so meteoric that there was plenty of speculation over the possibility of a wealthy Mayo donor coming […]
