As regards county board meeting, I'm pretty sure I read it's tonight and landers is expected to be confirmed as senior coach and teddy mac has the u21. All done behind closed doors, haven't a clue who the candidates were or who was on the selection committee. It's an absolute disgrace that this still goes on if u ask me.

If landers Is in, it would seem likely he be ratified at county board meeting tonight as announcement they said be by end last weekend. Dean ryan cup Friday final huge day for midelton and cork hurling.

Rochestown won frewen cup ist cork school break kerry dominance earlier this year in 11years after loosing seven finals so have lot them, good young players. Hurlers john cashman Shane kingston, carriglaine David griifin,powter,Eoin o brien,ciaran cormack And Sam collins,all very good players,could be playing, they have a strong team. They drew with facthnas, so win here should be pole position with facthnas qualify from the group Best luck to them tomorrow I'm not sure if brilliant Seamus Flanagan limerick hurlers playing with west limerick colleges He won junior hurling title weekend, been outstanding in harty cup, sister won munster medal with milford in Camoige the weekend.

Maybe the stock ye place in the performance of minor teams doesn't actually bear merit when it comes to Senior.

Paudie O Brien and Mahony have captained Limerick, and Mulcahy is there best forward outside of Dowling and Hannon I guess though that varies depending on the day. Cian Mc can't get in the Cork team ahead of Bill Cooper who to be honest is average at inter county level. Conor O Sullivan fair enough, Michael Cussen you are having a laugh. I don't care if he played for Cork he was never at that level in hurling as well you know!! Ray Ryan a good club hurler, nothing more at that is reflected in his appearances for Cork. Quigley was a good hurler but is getting on. Martin a good hurler, but at the end of the today where is the top class inter county player there? Again Daniel Kearney is decent/good inter county, probably the best Sars have but not an outstanding player either. There is none. Cratloe have three, Thurles had three, Ballygunner didn't really bar O'Keeffe in goal. Kilmallock you've at least one, and would say Gavin O Mahony and O Brien had poor years this year but are good inter county hurlers. No shame in a narrow defeat to them in Kilmallock. You can look at their record in previous years and say well they weren't quite good enough, but to be honest all I really ever care about myself is what happened this year and this year they were unlucky. Just saying nightmare is a huge exaggeration, and there does tend to be a bit of hyperbole in this thread.

And before you come back with the usual 'how many all Ireland's have limerick won?' we're aware of our record, that's why there has been Trojan work going on in limerick at underage to produce the players ...
