    There's no doubt kk are nowhere near as good as they were but from a limerick point of view I think we're better (leaving last July aside) they're still formidable opposition for us especially in croke park would we have gotten over the line in 2018 had that qf been on in croke park instead of thurles? Im not so sure. I think we can alter our game for winter hurling we have size on our side plus twud be no harm to have a plan b the running game wasn't much good to us last yr v kk was it? I think this yrs winners will come from us Tipp and wexford I discount kk cos I don't see them beating Tipp and I think if you've to win it you'll have to beat them for us if we're to win it we'll have to beat ye possibly twice same for Tipp with us. Cork Galway Waterford and Clare can't be discounted either but if I was forced to pick 3 thats who I'd go for

    fair enough as i said earlier i think its us lim or galway, can see wexford going far but ultimately they dont have high scoring forwards when needed.

    This winter hurling could suit our lads, best stick players in the country and should slow down some of the other teams as we are not blessed with pace, cork are screwed, limericks short running game could be difficult to pull off and wexford and kilkenny dont have the forwards to put up scores in difficult weather. between us lim and galway i reckon.
    time of year wouldnt really matter in croke park though will it. Ground will still be maintained by pro groundsmen and not really going to be that much of a factor.

    Winter hurling is all about dogs and kilkenny have plenty of them! Dogs and a excellent free taker will get you along way. I'd make them strong contenders.

    I finding it hard to get excited about this year's hurling all seems very distant.
    that bit cliched no? Going on about dogs..
    Kilkenny would be strong contenders regardless.

    Am thinking the exact same on all points you raised here. i can see problems for these matches to even take place what if someone gets the virus? Fixing these games whack bang in the middle of the next flu season defies comprehension to me but i haven't heard many say the same surely these could have been started in September thats giving the clubs july and August i know there'll be time needed to prepare/train etc but anything is better than the way they are going with.

    Re the hurling we (limerick) got the short stick plus Clare of course but would rather our draw than Tipps at least if we beat Clare we'll have a game under our belts but ahhh I can't get too excited yet cos I just fear unless they change dates this might not even happen. I hope to God it does though snow or no snow
    not really. If covid19 has dropped even more then what's the issue. It's not as if numbers from abroad attending games would be high.
    Clubs need more time than just two months and this will only be a short competition

    Wet sliotars im talking about more so than the ground. Ball skidding off the ground in wet weather harder to control so will suit lads with better first touch.

    all grounds are affected by weather but do these stadiums not have geoundsmen who manage the facility?
    It's not really a problem.

    My feeling is that Limerick will bring more of a Plan B this year. While their running game in full flow is awesome, it can be quite one dimensional and can play into the hands of certain teams e.g. the likes of KK who will always bring the dogs of war and will relish a short game battle in the middle third, even in the first game against Cork when Cork packed the middle third a longer game might have yielded better results against a fairly weak Cork full back line.


    Tipp don't have as effective a short game as Limerick and don't have the pace and power to execute it with the same impact as Limerick, but they mix it up a bit and are not afraid to cough up possession with long diagonal balls into their forwards which can be hugeful effective, as well as accurate long balls picking out their forwards in space.

    Could anyone tell me so I can tell my father, he needs to know, why during the nenagh v holycross game today did the commentator say the ball went left and wide when it was actually right and said right when it was left? Hope I'm making sense, I didn't see the game but my father has been on the phone to me asking me to find out!!??

    I noted that error myself.
    To be honest i think it was just a mistake and it was easier for the two lads commentating to carry on talking and not worry about back tracking.
    They had Cathal Barrett pass to Cathal Barrett at one stage, these mistakes happen

    Ok thanks, he was just wondering were the viewers watching a mirror image maybe or was the commentator as the left and rights were in reverse every time, as far as he is concerned anyway! He would be very observant like like that.

    Well I mean it can be either I would have thought? 'To the left and wide' could refer to the shooter or to the umpire/goalkeeper. It will always be to some ones right and some ones left

    It's generally from the goalkeepers viewpoint. To the left and wide means to the goalkeepers left, even though that's the right as we're looking at it.

    Club championship is wide open this year, definitely 5 or 6 teams who could win it. Fancy Nenagh this year to finally get the job done.

    Pat Fox out to the forty and grabs the sliothar. I bought a dog from his father last week. Fox turns and sprints for goal… the dog ran a great race last Tuesday in Limerick… Fox, to the 21, fires a shot – it goes to the left and wide… and the dog lost as well.

    Anyone get an email about their season ticket being cancelled and getting a refund of 40 euro?
    I can understand why they are cancelling it but I think I paid around 119 so basically I have paid 79 euro for five league games. That does annoy me

    Some good games there. I said earlier in the season that I thought Nenagh might win it but not sure now.

    I'd go with Sars, Loughmore, Borris and Kiladangan to win.

    Big shock with Nenagh hammering Thurles. Jake Morris scored a hat trick before half time with Nenagh leading 3-07 to 0-01 (Thures only scored in the 28th minute). Thurles started brightly in 2nd half but Nenagh comfortably won 3-12 to 1-08. Late Red Card for Ronan Maher too.

    Without Billy's ball-winning and strength, Thurles are a fish up a tree in the forwards.

    One of the worst displays from a referee I have ever seen, and a so called intercounty one at that! If Drom had of lost, he would have been lynched.

    Fair point , the penalty and The equalizer point were shocking decisions to give but Droms fouling throughout the game was equally shocking. They simply could not make a tackle without a Hurley around the neck . Was fierce exciting though and great value for money

    Fergal just had a bad game, I think he has lost some confidence in his decision making. The amount of injury time played before Drom got the third goal was questionable. And the decision to throw it in the middle of the goals on the 14 yard line without allowing borris get in position and the initial decision to reverse the free out for the foul were questionable which led to droms third goal.

    Overall though I think drom deserved it.

    Horgan is a good referee just not one of his better days. It’s not an easy job.
