Limerick GAA Discussion Part 2

Exactly now people might realise why we were so patchy in the league.

Munster Champion will get a few weeks off now... Would it be worthwhile for a friendly between the munster champions and Kerry to take place in an attempt to keep them fresh?

I think not playing any games between the munster final and the All-Ireland semi didn't do us much good

Cork tried the puckouts down on top of Byrnes again but they didn't get much value out of them as they had no extra man to gather the breaking ball or if they did get behind Byrnes the backs swallowed them up. Then for some reason they started pucking the ball into Hayes and he just cleaned up. The ref also stopped Cork taking quick puckouts. Also Limerick seemed more alive to these quick puck outs. Lynch was left do what he wanted too. Cork got a grip on the game after half time for a period. They seemed to close space better and stuck to Lynch more. Then we got the penalty and Cork seemed done. Our subs boosted us and we got a kick to finish it out.

My take is Cork are inconsistent based on last year and this. If we do meet again I'd imagine it will be a different Cork performance. Hopefully we have no injuries. Great to see Peter Casey in full flight again.

That's only if a neutral venue is required. So if Waterford or Clare make the final.

It was to stop Clare crying about having to go "all the way" to Cork.

Waterford can't make the Munster final this year so it's definitely vs Cork in Limerick or vs Tipp in Thurles.

Ah ffs would you stop. "Safety" are you actually serious.

Kerry and Cork football fans are asked to go up to Donegal and Fermanagh. Kilkenny fans up to Galway and Antrim.

If you told any fan of any sport in Europe that Clare people thought Clare to Cork was "too long" they would think you the most lazy, fair weather fans on the planet.

Clare is the same because they don't have home and away arrangements. And actually yes football does have home and away arrangements just like hurling.

Roscommon had to travel to Kerry over the weekend. I suppose that should have been cancelled because it's not motorway all the way from Roscommon to Kilarney .

Literally everything you have said about the GAA the last few days has been wrong.

Clare were right to complain. No point dragging everyone to Cork when you had Limerick and Thurles available. Heck I'd rather have to travel to Croke Park than to PUC for game anyday of the week.

Cork will surely not malfunction to that extent again. Aside from being blown out of it in the first half, they weren't even able to raise any meaningful effort playing with the wind. Their last point of the game was scored in the 48th minute.

Some unreal performances from Limerick. Score of the game was just before half time, Reidy killed a puck out with 2 beautiful touches, laid it off to English who lofts a pass over his head to Morrissey. Morrissey catches under pressure and slots over from a narrow angle...

For the clare game, I'd say they will look to keep up a good level of performance and keep the workrate levels up. I'd like to see around 4 changes.....sonething along the lines of Murphy, O Donovan, O Neill and P Casey to start with M Casey, Lynch, Morrissey and Reidy rested.

I reckon it will be as strong as panel as possible for Clare. Lohan will want to win I'd say. I'd say we will put out a strong team with a sprinkle of lads from the bench possibly.

Clare will be full strength.

Assuming they have no more tantrums.

You could also add B Murphy, aidan o c and coughlan to that list too and still have a v good starting 15
