Kilkenny’s dominance at Croker yesterday shows in how hard TJ Reid hit the sliotar.
After a wobbly first half the Cats choked Galway to claim yet another All-Ireland title, and their dominance is shown in this infographic from Liberty Insurance.
The average ball speed from Kilkenny was 118kph, but TJ Reid – Kilkenny’s top scorer in the game having grabbed a goal and pointed from every single placed ball – got up to a top speed of almost 170kph.
What a player.
