Limerick GAA Discussion Part 2

A lot of the blaming the ref stuff will becoming from people from neither county. Plenty on here just like to moan and plenty more will have their agendas against Limerick or Kilkenny.

Big day For Aidan O Connor getting onto the match day 26.

With Declan Hannon, Sean Finn & Ritchie English injured , How many others are on the extended panel? Jamie Power & O'dailigh from Monaleen are two to best of my knowledge ..

Extended panel also has Fergal O'connor (Effin), Ciaran Barry (Ahane), Mark Quinlan (Garryspillane), Jimmy Quilty (Blackrock, injured), Shane O'brien and Micheal Houlihan (both Killmallock).

I’m worried about the full back line. Dan and Nash are hard as rocks as Is Casey but he does pick up knocks in games.

bar Cathal o neill I think that is our weakest bench in years.

I’m fearful for tomorrow being honest, especially with the injuries , Kilkenny know this only too well , great chance for them now

I don't have a clue how it's going to go. Really do not have a clue.

If both teams show up 100% on top form it's Limericks but we have been very up and down. You don't know our form till half way through the match at times.

Lots of the usual cliches in the media too about Kilkenny "are never bate" and all this but I wouldn't be any more shocked to see a repeat of the 2019 final then I would be if Kilkenny won.

I wouldn't even bet on either team if they had a good lead at half time the way both have the ability to claw games back.

Costello is a good scrapper, fights hard to win ball. He'd be vulnerable against a top forward at intercounty level, can be turned a bit too easily. Has played midfield for Kilmallock over the last couple of years and been excellent at that level.

Connolly is a tidy centre back, not the biggest or most spectacular but links up the play well and keeps the game moving. Would be very much in at the deep end if he was called on given his lack of experience at this level.

Bit off topic but I have a train ticket spare for tomorrow Limerick to dublin return, 8.25 out and 7.30 return had a family member not able to make it. Dm me if interested

Depends on how good the photo is.

If they printed the ticket they had to download a pdf onto a computer. Just get them to forward the pdf and print it again yourself!

i reckon ye will do the buisness , your man from roscrea is probably getting sick in a bucket reading this by the way...

what lyng has done with kilkenny in his first year is incredible , but i cant look away from the amount of goal chances the last day that we left behind , i dont see shamo or gillane leaving them behind ,plus with the clare exiles on the line beside kiely ye wont be found wanting like we were on tactical issues

this is possibly the only time we will witness limerick do a 4 in a row and when you think how close ye came to be knocked out on several occasions this year , if tommy lynch from treaty united is in yer corner so am i , its a pity we didnt get another craic at ye the build up over the last two weeks would have been chaos 🤣

The big day is here. I'm confident they'll do the business. If Limerick don't play near their best or don't bring their ferocious workrate then Kilkenny will beat them. Kilkenny are playing very well and have excellent players but I'm not sure they've progressed as much as everyone says... they play more openly but that'll suit Limerick. Kilkenny have conceded 10 goals between Antrim, Wexford, Galway and Clare. Clare had 4 good goal chances and got 1. Do that against Limerick and they've no chance.

Feels like 2019 semi final. KK are working so hard on tackling us coming out of the backs and in midfield that the forwards have had no ball really. We look dodgy at time with long ball in. Wind with us in the second half though.

I hope you feel you got good value from that bet. It was an illusion from the start.
