TG4 documentary Reabhloid GAA earns rave reviews as hurling fans get hit of 90s nostalgia

TG4's new series reflecting on a golden era for hurling has already gone down a hit with TV viewers.

'Reabhloid GAA' tells the story of hurling in the 1990s - when the game's traditional powerhouses were toppled by counties starved of success.

Kilkenny, Cork and Tipperary had become used to occupying the top table but the 90s famously saw the likes of Wexford and Clare ending long waits for glory, while a legendary Offaly side followed up two All-Irelands in the previous decade with two more epic triumphs

Davy Fitzgerald, Ger Loughnane, Brian Whelahan, Johnny Dooley, Johnny Pilkington, Liam Griffin, Martin Storey all give their perspectives on an era that changed hurling forever.

The programme went down a treat with hurling lovers - who took to social media tonight to praise the doc.

Colin Higgins tweeted: "Great memories on tg4 hurling in the 90s. Some great all Irelands and stories from teams. What an era to grow up in."

Christina Maloney said: "Watching Réabhlóid GAA on @TG4TV, what I would do to be alive in the 90s."

And Henry Martin commented: "Brilliant documentary on 1990s hurling on TG4 at the moment."
