I think it will be the opposite. Kerry I think Kerry will run riot against them.

Limerick have been unlucky not to win two Munster Finals this decade and I think they are not to be underestimated.

Have you ever actually watched a Limerick football match this year, honestly?
Have you seen the current team play?
Can you name any stand-out players bar the ones I named above?


No.

Did you just ignore his point by asking a load of debatably relevant questions?



Yes.

Oh wait.. can I edit that and say...

"But I respect your opinion".

And those points show that he has no idea about the Limerick team so he doesn't know their capability and really shouldn't be making judgements until he sees them play:)

Oh but I respect his opinion.

No.

How many All Ireland football's have limerick been in the last decade?
How many Munsters have they won in the last decade?

None, that is exactly why I think Kerry will destroy limerick.

And I'm already rock bottom of the FF league. Yay!
Only 3 of my starting 11 have played thus far though and I haven't been online to make substitutions. But if Slovakia don't hammer New Zealand, I'm fairly fcuked.

Atleast you didnt just spend 3/4 of the game thinking it was Germany vs Argentina..
Then when it came to the 3rd goal I realised it was Australia and for some reason assumed they were white so I was like "wohoo theyre coming back" Then the 4th goal came and I screamed for my sister to come because it was level...
*Facepalm* That must have been my stupidest moment in a while, I should really read the score and names yolk in the corner... :o I dont even understand how I thought it Argentina(Australia were in white, I saw the other 2 goals )

Without ever having watched North Korea play a football match, I think I can safely say Brazil will mush them on Tuesday.

But I respect your opinion..

What does past results like 10 years ago have to do with current form?

And they may not have won any championship silverware but their performances have been more then a challenge to some of the top teams.

Soccer is a whole different sport though.
And I don't have a clue about soccer but Limerick have put up a challenge to top teams in the past 2/3 years especially :rolleyes:
Dunno what N.Korea are like....

Logic still applies to it. He was saying it's safe to assume Kerry will mush Limerick, based purely on pedigree.

I was doing the same.

Ok then.

I'm not arguing that they'll win btw. Just that they won't get "mushed" seeing as we do have one of the best midfield pairings in the country and a decent back line *smug* :pac:

We'll come back to this on July 4th.

The world cup has been shít. Bar maybe the opening game there hasn't been one really good match yet.

I was really looking forward to this Holland match and it's like watching paint dry.

I still have hope for Cameroon v Japan....

Slow Show

Ugh, I just missed the own goal, and before I could watch the replays of it my telly decided to self-destruct...

I got up especially for this match, bit disappointing tbh...

I enjoyed watching Germany. Sure, it was one-sided, but it was entertaining to watch a team play good football like they did.

Subbing Honda into my team for Krasic this morning was a masterstroke :pac:

De Rossi was on my team. Let's hope he got me a few points.

Edit: I'm first. Woo :P

got to put xavi in now

Damn, forgot to make substitutions AGAIN. I seriously need to start working harder at this thing.

Why wasn't Nakamura playing? Buffon getting injured wasn't good for me either!

Are you serious

Yeah, I've got Buffon as well.

Hopefully Villa and Xavi will make up for it by grabbing a few goals.

Yep, he was substituted at half time - heard that it was a sciatic nerve problem

I've Villa and Kaka to make up for him a bit, hopefully!

I will wait until I hear conformation that he is out. There goes my chance of having a decent keeper. The German keeper is most likely my back up if he is out for a long time.

I'm hedging my bets - hoping Villa will score and Xavi set him up, but also playing Senderos when Switzerland are up against Spain.

I've got nothing to lose though; I took Carragher off as he only got 1 point, so even if Spain score a few, Senderos should do no wrong.

I've Schwazer and Sorenson as my back ups, hope Buffon is okay though!

German keeper sounds like a good back up in fairness, Germany playing very well defensively, though Australia were poor

I'm actually thinking about going for the keeper of a weaker team that I'd tip to win their next match. Goalkeepers for stronger teams have less saves to make.
I think Enyeama earned loads of points for his great performance against Argentina, even though he didn't keep a clean sheet.

Ivory Coast vs. Portugal - now there's a potential cracker of a match.
