Galway face Kilkenny in the Leinster Senior Hurling Final on Sunday next looking to win back to back titles for the first time.
This is also a chance to close the gap on the Cats in the Head to Head with Galway only winning once in their four finals meetings since entering the Leinster Championship in 2009. A 2-21 to 2-11 win in 2012.
Niall Canavan and Sean Walsh got the thoughts of players and management in the build up to Sunday's game.
Sean first spoke to Ahascragh-Fohenagh's Padraig Mannion
