Limerick GAA Discussion Part 2

Getting through on 3 points brings a whole different level of pressure.

Ya we could turn it around but do you honestly see a team winning the All Ireland off the back of a draw and a win over a poor Waterford side.

Absolutely no chance we will end up on 3 pts,would be shocked if we are not in a Munster final on Sunday evening

The All Ireland champions are utter shte year and Waterford are not a bad team but they were poor that evening against Limerick.

Don't forgot Cork were also down to 14 for the Clare comeback.

Very few if any games so far give a clear indication of where teams are. Sunday as you say will tell a lot.

No O'Dalaigh.

I wonder if he is injured. I get the feeling they really don't have confidence in him.

Or maybe just no room because that's a serious set of forwards to bring on.

I think Will O'D could be the difference on Sunday. If he puts in a MotM performance we win.

Both teams are stacked but him and Lynch in very different ways can just do things no one else can.

Wouldn't like to have seen Barry Murphy in the corner. Not sure about Mike as a corner back for match like this against very pacy players

We cannot afford to leave any space in front of out full back line. I'd imagine that Kyle will play very deep with WOD covering also. English will be given a licence to get forward with Reidy asked to cover alot of space around midfield. We've a strong bench on paper but alot of players that are coming back from injury so it will be a serious cauldron to be thrown into. Great to see Hannon on the bench. I wonder if Limk are chasing the game would he be introduced with Kyle to wing back. Hannon doesn't cover other defensive positions so will be interested to see if introduced. It will certainly be a day for 5 subs to be and with Limk's experience on the bench we have an advantage here.

Two great teams named. Should be a cracker. Good to have Cathal and likes of Aidan O C to come in.

Not sure I would start Byrnes against Cork (or anyone for that mayter). He has been a great servant, but offers very little anymore. Seems lazy. Likewise with Deccie - what a leader, but as poster above mentioned if we had to chase a game would he cover to allow Kyle move up. Personally, cant see it.

Just hope Sean, Dan and Mike last - we have far fewer options across the back line.

People are talking like we got the sht kicked out of us last year but we lost by a bad mistake that led to a penalty and a few missed chances and too late changes.

We don't need to change much and Byrnes was never an unreal defender (so he hasn't lost something)

Everybody seems to think that the kyle

Move to 6 was too late last game but we were winning at ht and i guess Kiely planned a third qtr assault. We missed a golden goal chance and for some unexplained reason cork played god mode for about 10 mins and were out of sight. I couldnt believe what i was seeing. They barely hung on.

Have 2 adults 2 kids Terence tickets. Clare end. Can transfer. Face value

for Clare maybe give game time to all who benched today

Casey was definitely reading Boards and said I'll change that come Sunday.
