Limerick GAA Discussion Part 2

I would give O'Neill the number 6 jersey.

long over due they nearly got caught by the trap that is derrick mcgrath ball of retreating all men behind the ball when 3 points up with 15 minutes to go , but the workrate was superb , adam english is a serious free taker especially in them conditions

after pat ryan put over a boomer from the far side of the field it was everyone back , i half feel sorry for shane dowling , he cant help himself on tv , he lets his passion get ahead of himself and knowing how passionate he is as a hurler he is hurting tonight , a great servant for the cahirdavin men for nearly 20 years , but doon have had enough of it too, to be fair darragh o'donovan is almost the opposite of dowling , he is everyone favorite hurler , a straight talker a likeable lad the bird isnt half bad either and put in another super shift tonight , gave an interview for the ages afterwards too

for a lad that missed all this year its a great finish to the year , 1968 is along time to be senior with out a title in limerick , but with adam english , ritchie english , barry murphy , o donovan and donal coughlin , there is surly another title in them ,

it was argued for years up here that today wouldn't happen , its a huge victory in fairness

i ment to say that about peter casey , its incredible that he came on and was back to full fitness after what looked like a career ending injury , some achievement in itsself ,

yeah underneath the top tier if limerick hurling i know nothing about what props it up , i was very surprised to see newcastle west gain senior status

Adam English had some game yesterday. A great shift by the whole team but he really was head and shoulders above everyone on the pitch.

Tom, Boylan,

Flanagan, O'Dalaigh

Cians very poor form this year , straight in/out with English.

I think you could be pretty spot on there. Only thing I think will be different in O'Neill in the half backs, English midfield and Peter starting.

Will is at 6

Yes I'd drop WOD, great player to have in a battle in Waterford or ennis but in open spaces of croke park give me a more mobile midfield any day, I think english can be our darragh fitz buzzing around midfield area and tapping over 4 or 5 points a game from play. Start o brien too and maybe o connor, Flanagan and lynch need to start on bench as we need to freshen things up

Lynch has hardly played in 3 years so I don't see how he is "stale".

For the millionth time. Croke Park does not have wide open spaces. "Little" Ennis is actually the maximum pitch dimensions for a GAA pitch.

Darragh Langan from Monaleen looked very good in the club championship matches I watched. He was on the panel last year and played a bit of the league. Could be one to watch this year. Fergal O Connor is another who could be good enough to step up.

Graeme didn’t play any hurling in the half forward line.

The forward depth we have despite Grames retirement is still really good. Hegarty, lynch, Morrissey, O neill, O Connor, English, Reidy, Boylan, O Brien, Gillane, O Dalaigh, Gillane, Flanagan and Casey is a top class forward unit with all more than able to contribute. Some might be needed in the backs/midfield but it is still impressive.

Nicky Quaid should be the captain in that case.
