Cork had beaten Tipperary by 3-7 to 1-6 in the group stages of the National Camogie League. Semi-finals As part of the centenary celebrations the two semi-finals were televised live by RTÉ for the first time. Cork beating Galway by 3-9 to 1-4 and Tipperary overcoming a strong Wexford challenge with a two-point win thanks to a goal from Deirdre Hughes. Because of illness team captain Joanne Ryan was not named in the starting line-up for the semi-final clash with Wexford but came off the bench. Final A goal from Deirdre Hughes in the 19th minute, when she availed of a mix-up in the Cork defence to score into an empty net kept Tipperary on course for a fifth title in six years as Una O'Dwyer maintained her absolute control at the heart of their defence. Tipperary were denied a goal when Eimear McDonnell’s ninth minute penalty was stopped by Cork ’keeper Aoife Murray. Hughes’s goal was quickly followed by two pointed frees from Grogan, and gave Tipp an important psychological boost and a half time lead of 1-6 to 0-4 and when substitute Joanne Ryan scored a goal in the 43rd minute, Tipperary gained even more in confidence. Aftermath Raymie Ryan retired as Tipperary manager the following November, having guided the Tipperary team to two successive All-Ireland victories, two Munster championship titles, and their first National League title since 1977.Irish Independent: Ryan reaches end of line with Premier side Final stages August 21Semi-Final Cork 3-9 – 1-4 Galway Nowlan Park, Kilkenny August 21Semi-Final Tipperary 1-10 – 2-5 Semi-final report in Irish Independent Wexford Nowlan Park, Kilkenny September 19Final Tipperary 2-11 – 0-9 2004 All Ireland final reports in Irish Examiner https://web.archive.org/web/20110810071638/http://www.examiner.ie/archives/2004/0920/sport/centenary-joy-for-tipp-906864636.html 2011-08-10 , https://archive.today/20120804060645/http://www.independent.ie/national-news/golden-vale-girls-triumph-in-camogie-centenary-clash-155400.html Irish Independent, Irish Times and Rebelgaa.com https://web.archive.org/web/20120318081725/http://www.rebelgaa.com/news/news_item.asp?NewsID=481 2012-03-18 Cork Croke Park, Dublin _goldshoulders _goldhorizontal _goldshoulders 0000ff 0000ff 0000ff FFFFFF 0000ff Tipperary _red_2 _red _red_3 FF0000 FFFFFF FF0000 Cork TIPPERARY: GK 1 Jovita Delaney (Cashel)RCB 2 Suzanne Kelly (Toomevara)FB 3 Una O'Dwyer (Cashel)LCB 4 Julie Kirwan (Moneygall)RWB 5 Sinéad Nealon (Burgess)CB 6 Ciara Gaynor (Burgess) LWB 7 Therese Brophy (Burgess)MF 8 Angie McDermott (Kildangan)MF 9 Philly Fogarty (Cashel) 55RWF 10 Joanne Ryan (Drom & Inch) (1-0) CF 11 Noelle Kennedy (Toomevara)LWF 12 Claire Grogan (Cashel) (0-9) RCF 13 Eimear McDonnell (Burgess) (0-2) FF 14 Deirdre Hughes (Toomevara) (1-0) 61LCF 15 Jill Horan (Clonoulty) 61Substitutes: MF Paula Bulfin (Cashel) for Fogarty 55FF Emily Hayden (Cashel) for Hughes 61LCF Geraldine Kinnane (Drom-Inch) for Horan 61 CORK: GK 1 Aoife Murray (Cloughduv)RCB 2 Joanne Callaghan (Cloughduv)FB 3 Stephanie Delea (Cloughduv)LCB 4 Rosarie Holland (Barryroe) 36RWB 5 Paula O'Connor (Newtownshandrum)CB 6 Mary O'Connor (Killeagh)LWB 7 Rena Buckley (Inniscarra)MF 8 Vivienne Harris (Bishopstown)MF 9 Gemma O'Connor (St Finbarr's) (0-2) RWF 10 Rachel Maloney (Courcey Rovers)CF 11 Emer Dillon (Ballygarvan) (0-2) LWF 12 Jennifer O'Leary (Barryroe) (0-4) RCF 13 Una O'Donoghue (Cloughduv) (0-1) FF 14 Emer Watson (Milford)LCF 15 Colette Desmond (Newcestown) 41Substitutes: LCB Elaine Burke (Valley Rovers) for Holland 36FF Anna Geary (Milford) for Desmond 41 References 30em External links All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship 2003 All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship 2005 1932 – present 2004 All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship
