Kilkenny supporters turned out in force in Croke Park earlier this month to see the Cats thwart Galway and win their sixth consecutive Leinster title.
GAA HQ was a sea of black and amber for the affair, with many making the trip to cheer on the county. They were duly rewarded, and the Bob O'Keeffe Cup returned Noreside for another year, with goals from TJ Reid and Mossy Keoghan proving crucial.
It's now hoped a large Kilkenny crowed will travel to Croke Park on Sunday, July 6 as Derek Lyng's men will face near-neighbours Tipperary for a place in the final.
