But he is class should have been on earlier in my opinion. He could have made the difference. And for transparency im from Kilkenny.

I think he got the shot off before he was able to be fouled. Also he is a big man and very hard to drag down. What about the 65?? I thought it would be hard for the linesman and umpires to pick up.

As for the 65 I was on that corner today and I didn't see the deflection nor did any of the limerick fans around me it wasn't until I got home I found out about it. I think it would have been very difficult for the umpires to see.

Others like Hannon mulcahy etc who both reverted to previous years form today showed they are not as top class when the pressure is at its greatest. Shane Dowling who always gives it his all would been suited to start today likes of hegarty and Tom morrissey seemed to get frustrated early on Cian Lynch did nothing to suggest he is the current Hurler of the year despite being hailed as the most influential player on his team and able to influence any game.

It was amazing to watch their workrate. Limerick just had some awful wides and too much over playing the ball at times. Delighted KK won (I'm from the Deise) as the ref was a pure disgrace. He was referring both teams totally differently and isn't up to the standard required.

They weren't up to it for a good part of yesterday's game either. They won their All Ireland and i think you wont see them at the top for a while now again like Galway. Delighted Galway and Limerick won their All Irelands 2017 and 2018. Kilkenny will go on to win All Ireland now and Cody will leave on a high.
