Clare GAA Discussion - 2024 All Ireland Hurling Champions

Conlon needs to keep it simple, trying too much at times.

Fitzpatrick cause of the goal for me, why flick the ball away from yourself blind when have no idea what's there. Only watching on TV so maybe he is doing unseen stuff.

once again we did our best to lose it and gave Wexford every chance to get into the game. So many mistakes and gave them so many cheap scores.

poor game management, poor distribution, bad decision making and terrible use of the ball.

Edited and will card later.

As has been said, win is a win. Definitely really excellent at some stages but lacked overall. For Patches very poor.

This will give Clare a good boost to have got this win and especially we looked really good from a scoring perspective. I think every starting forward scored.

One thing, Kelly not really in it again. Look it's a negative and positive. he still chips in but often teams are directing everything towards him which leaves the rest of the forwards open.

I'll hop for Cork but I think the next game could be good, Clare won't have the space to get complacent if they go too far ahead.

I’m delighted with that. Great to be back in Thurles again.

I taught Malone was immense. Won a site of ball and carried it out to set up numerous scores, when the game was in the melting pot. What a player and servant to Clare.

Taylor and Hayes were excellent too. Hayes is gem of a lad, I love how he plays the game.

Cant wait for next weekend again. Give us Galway!

Yeah Galway possibly are better than Cork, but we’re very poor the last day. Cork were good versus Limerick. But Galway I think it would be a great derby to get up for. There is just something about Cork, they always seems to beat us in the big games since ‘13.

Either way, I’m already looking forward to next week! Great to be back on the road again.

Ya, it's a funny thing in the back door, Clare are now coming of a win, but Cork and Galway are coming off a loss. Confidence or redemption? Which is more important?

I think Croke Park is vacant next Saturday so wouldn't be surprised to see a double header with 18k capacity.

Yeah Conlon was very untidy yesterday. He needs to speed up his thought-process. On the other hand, Paul Flanagan is a brilliant tidy corner back in possession. I’m really impressed by his performances in the championship.

Good display, when you go into a big lead like that it’s very hard to keep going at the same clip throughout. Limerick are one of the few teams who can do it.

But Clare never let Wexford get ahead, definitely a fair result.

There are loads of positives, a comfortable win without Conlon and Kelly doing very much. Aidan McCarthy is having a super year, full back line were solid. Malone did heaps of work again, Shanagher dangerous but didn’t get enough service, Diarmuid Ryan very good.

id fancy Clare to beat Cork and to at least give Galway a serious test. I’d expect Davy Mc to start the next day, even though it took him a good while to settle yesterday after coming in.

I think we should keep Rodgers on the bench as a refresher role, he'll still be important, but starting isn't a bad idea either

I think we should go with this as a team template

Hayes-Cleary-Flanagan

Ryan-Conlon-Mcinerney

Galvin Malone

McCarthy-Reidy-Shanagher

Taylor-Kelly-Galvin

Clare v Cork next Saturday.

Can we finally get a meaningful win against them in 8 years.,

We beat them in group stages where if lim had shown up v tipp they would have been out (and clare in). But i get your point, we defo owe them a beating or too.
