I dunno about that, what did Hayes do? They seemed to be straight in on him and 6 for Waterford kneed him fairly blatantly

Sullovan

Have to fancy Limerick going into championship they will literally try and do whatever it takes to win games not ideal for the purest but it gets the results on the big days

It seems I should be expecting another phone-call from my Limerick native uncle sometime tomorrow bemoaning the standard of refereeing in the game

Yeah, soft frees last week, cards this week. Wait until the refs are more consistent!

It should be but then again Limerick lads got away lightly last week. Byrnes was unfortunate!!! Refs finally caught up with Flanagan. Shouldn't be playing this week but glad he did now.

Love how you can turn a dirty Waterford player into a dig at Limerick

Long overdue red card for Kyle Hayes, did anything come of this after?

Limerick are still easily the best team in the country.

Now that's fair sad from a supposed hurling supporter. Have you anything better to be doing with your time than dredging through newspaper files for personal attacks.

Well he has also broke the jaw of another hurler in essentially an exhibition game....

Not much dredging just Google 3 words and you'll find it easily.

Waterford lads instead of enjoying their win showing their usual class with nasty stuff on here

Was Hayes second yellow or straight red?

An improvement for Waterford. And a result.

I don't think Kiely will be too bothered. He wouldn't have taken off Gillane if he was worried about the result.

The lack of sharpness to Limericks game compared to the last few years is a worry

Adelman of Beamfleot

Kiely mustn't regard the regular simulation that Quaid has been performing for a few seasons now as being of the embarrassing kind

big_drive

Will odonoghue is another who'll pick up a red soon , acting the hard man too much & getting involved

Grats

According to the Examiner it was a straight red. Both he and Flanagan should have got their marching orders last week. Last weeks ref blew the soft frees, this week's ref showed the cards. Wait until they're consistent.

I think he might have been joking. Truth is though is that all senior intercounty teams are equally as dirty as each other. All these teams are the same. Limerick don't go down as easy as others though. KK have that strength also lsn't a shame to see the way teams will use deceit and try to cheat so readily. 3 weeks in a row where the girly maiden tactic of feigning injury has shown itself in its efforts to thwart Limerick and further add to and enhance the lie and falsehood that Limerick are a dirty team. This is the biggest worry in our game going forward. Players with no integrity. Limerick the baddies today, your county tomorrow.

Limerick need to be careful now and take their punishment and move on. The whining from Kiely last week is a bad approach to take, warranted or not.

Is this also a joke?

What was with Quaid's antics today after Waterford scored 1 - 1 in the second half? Cynicism at it's absolute finest.

It's funny how all teams are equally "dirty" - seems very unlikely given the different and various personalities involved in all these teams that this would be an absolute dead heat.

And yet two counties are morally superior to others when it comes to sucking it up and essentially protecting the opposition player from any punishment (when is essentially what this is about).

The second but is just as incredible as the first which is saying something.

He expressed his bewilderment as to why two of his players were deemed as close contacts of two wexford players. He said one was a sub who wasn't on very long on one of the players. It's setting a dangerous precedent. He was very mannered and calm about it. But, maybe I'm wrong, I felt there was a subtext to what he saying, how can an opposition side be let to name opposition players when it rules them out of a game.
And Henry raised his concern in relation to club ties to come.

Why did Croke Park not clarify the matter during the week. Wexford reported the two close contacts, Wexford announced their match was going ahead, Wexford then announced a postponement????

Wexford were made aware of the 2 cases within the panel and following this the whole panel was tested Tuesday evening where no additional positive cases showed up, the whole panel were tested again Friday and this showed 1 additional case, after becoming aware of this Wexford requested postponement of the game today, the Clare element is a head scratcher.
