Limerick GAA Discussion Part 2

I did just that but made sure they were refundable

I'd expect a bit of squad rotation for the Munster final this year.

It's not a 15 man game anymore though.

~20 players involved yesterday.

Ideal opportunity to rotate things.

Makes sense and motivates everybody.

Munster final is not do or die at this point.

It's a matter of opinion. Cian Lynch was on the bench yesterday. Does he start in your book?

Now is the chance to freshen it up a little IMO. The target is the AI, while a Munster title is great nobody will remember it at this stage.

Delighted to get through getting to the munster final is unreal never did I expect that.

I knew cork match was a hop of the ball, cork so dangerous their speed! Felt we could do damage to their fb line and ultimately I think that was the difference but was so close.

Still not at levels of last yr but slowly getting there clare will be the ultimate task.

Let's hope common sense prevails and the final is played in thurles or preferably limerick but understand totally why clare wouldn't want to play us at home. Just would be so easy for all of us if it was limerick

If the rumours are true it is a sensible approach. There's a lot of very dedicated fans in the GAA but likewise there is a lot that wouldn't go to Cork or even Thurles for the match

As long as the tickets go 50/50 it would suit both counties

Munster GAA have said Clare requested it and no mention of us. The Examiner said we want Cork.

99% of the time I would want Cork myself as I hate Thurles both the stadium and town. But myself and everyone I know has train tickets for Thurles.

Funny enough tickets to Cork were sold out very fast. I wonder how many Tipp fans have tickets for that train 🤣

Limerick county board are kind of in a no win situation here. I'd hate this final to be in Limerick - it's nearly like a home game for Clare and the perceived injustice and unfairness of it would fuel the wagons to circle the camp for a feel weeks (I can picture Derek lynch from the champion having fits of apoplectic rage at the mere thought of it).

Having 20000 cars travelling down the one road through charleville, buttevant etc to target being in Cork for the same 2 hour interval is also madness.

Great bonus to have such worries but usually it doesn't do any favours to whoever gives out about a venue choice.

lads just heard there it will be Limerick, came from a fairly decent source too.

Announcement on tickets will be straight away. They have already said information on Tuesday and sales later in the week.

Should be Thurlas as its a final and its the only place with Hawkeye outside of croke park (not that it works half the time anymore) plus max size it'll definitely sell out so more ppl in it the better, can't wait it'll be some atmosphere!

Not confirmed yet but as good as I would imagine

Gaelic Grounds - tickets go on sale Thursday at 12pm.

I am surprised that Clare would give the go ahead to go into the lions den. I know Clare won there few weeks back but would it be even harder to do it again in such a short time. It would be ideal for the fans obviously but it is definately an advantage to Limerick and i'm even more confident now of a Limerick win. 'A grain of rice' makes all the difference Paidi O Se used say well this a 2 kilo bag of rice.
