Limerick GAA Discussion Part 2

Didn't see that happening. Hopefully Lynch can play a fair chunk of the game. I think that's the way they will play.

Ya I think Lynch is the bigger worry than what way the backs line up.

Awesome display. I really thought we were in bother after 20 minutes. We just took over then. I think Lynch makes such a difference. He threads so much ball through from tight situations. Some of the wides again were poor but we had a good spread of scorers.

the most impressive part of today was on 25 minutes , 1-12 to 1-6 it was , nicky quade went down with an injury , enough time for the sideline to make adjustments until half time , at the break it was 1-13 to 1-12

the lad on the clare times facebook page talks about the infamous asthma machines in the limerick dressing room at half time , but the reality is its all down to kielys drive and kinnerks tactics , kinereck spotted weakness in the galway set up and exploited them , kiely thore in to his lads i imagine like dessie farrell did last week against mayo and limerick were a diffrent team

at the end of the game both Darragh o Donovan and Kiley gave basically the same interview , this is the power of having a top psychologist in curid in the set up , she has came form the calculated world of rugby to the fire and brimstone of 100 mile an hour hurling abd brought both belief and composure this side

i just hope we can get our side of the barging done tomorrow and go at it again in two weeks time , there will be no need for the sports psychologists for that one !!!

Great display yesterday, possibly our best performance since the Munster final last year.

how did Gillane or Hayes not get MOTM ?

Daragh was excellent but I thought either of the above were more influential.

On Cian, great to see him back but I thought he wasn’t anywhere near his best. He coughed up too many possessions, hand passes went wildly astray putting fellas under pressure which lead to conceded frees.

Cathal O Neill looked very sharp, he poses more of an aerial threat and I think he starts ahead of Cian at this juncture.

Stayed in Dublin last night, great banter with the numerous Clare lads here.

Jaysus theyre so cocky !! Judging by the lads we spoke to last night poor aul Kilkenny will be slaughtered!!!!

its a tough game to call….

WOULD LOVE TO BATE Clare in an All aireland final, weve beaten the rest Galway Cork Waterford Kilkenny.

i still think KK will win today but by god it would be some AI against Clare.

Hon Limerick.

what a team, thanks for all the days out lads ye do us proud. My head is killing me and now we have the prospect of more nights out , Woodland probably and Searsons gig have already been pencilled in and the Burlo !!!!

Just home and watching a bit of the BBC commentary from yesterday, the gave Gillane MOTM !!! ……and a nicer trophy!!!!!😂🏆

Agree. Although it will be another titanic tussle I would expect us to do a number on them again.

somebody spent a little too long back in Kilkee today winding up the locals , best of luck in the final lad the last 45 years were hard earned ye deserve yer moment in the sun

why ye pick kilkee for some of those other moments in the sun i will never know though 🤣

Tickets will be the next issue although a Limerick v Kilkenny final will be a lot easier than a Limerick v Clare final.

Last year there was plenty stand tickets on the day, Kilkenny is a small county population wise and youd imagine 20/25K would be as much Kilkenny ever have at a final, lot more neutrals though than ever keen to go to Hurling final after watching some of the great games this year and the football so average. It'll be the same story , those not involved in a club will have to try many options to get one.

Plenty of extra tickets floating around on the day too from people who had secured too many.

Generally don't think there is an issue when one of the smaller counties like Kilkenny make the final.

I'm the same on the train tickets. Gonna be glued to that website. I know there will be a special train and possibly increased capacity on other trains but I'm also hoping some optimistic Clare people will start returning tickets over the next few days.

Tickets for the football semi went on sale today. I am expecting ours to be next Tuesday.

Just to add, any truth to the 97euro a ticket rumour??

90 even on the season ticket.
