Replying To ZUL10: "Fair play to Waterford. Stood up to KK which at times was not pretty. I dont think Waterford care at this stage whether beating KK is ugly. Waterford are serious contenders this year. They should be well capable of taking Tipp next weekend." Yeah theymight,tight pitch in bad conditions reduces the gap... they beat Tipp in the league last year too....then came the munster final at the height of summer and there was no where to hide!! Come to think of it they beat KK in league last year too but failed in two attempts in the Championship. PremierGold (Tipperary) - Posts: 121 - 13/02/2017 17:16:42 1956279 Link
Would agree with you there as you say even with the Cuala lot we just don't have the strenght in depth. arock (Dublin) - Posts:3186 - 13/02/2017 10:12:43 It's depressing looking at the setup at the moment. Can't see anything other than relegation and a very short summer. Trollier, Crummy, Rushy, O'Donnell, Quinn and McMorrow are all good enough but not sure about the rest from Saturday night. Burke from Na Fianna has a lot of talent but is too young to be asked to lead the attack for a serious team. The Cuala lads coming back may make us more competitive but we shouldn't be this bad when our Club Champions players are unavailable. We have to suffer through the end of Cunningham's reign unfortunately. I haven't been this pessimistic going into a season for about 10/12 years. We've gone seriously backwards and it is a dangerous time for Dublin hurling. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13703 - 13/02/2017 18:34:48 1956313 Link
Replying To Pinkie: "I created that about a month ago, god these Limerick lads are some sore losers." Galway will put Wexford back in their box next Sunday , won't be able to intimidate the referee as easily in salt hill hurler32 (Limerick) - Posts: 867 - 13/02/2017 19:08:40 1956325 Link
Replying To hurler32: "Galway will put Wexford back in their box next Sunday , won't be able to intimidate the referee as easily in salt hill" Intimidation?? Refereeing may have been sub-standard but that's hardly a new phenomenon. We're you looking at highlights from Nowlan Park - did Waterford intimidate the ref because there were potentially two red cards at that one?? Yeah perhaps Galway might put us back in our box but we'll get on with it if they do. Suggest you and in particular your manager gets on with this week instead of moaning and whining.

Dirk,we all know a generation of people in limerick have been brought up with a deep-rooted dislike of wexford.they just cant accept that we were the better team on the day and deserved our win,lets taint the victory by blaming the victory. pathetic. perfect10 (Wexford) - Posts: 3929 - 13/02/2017 20:54:04 1956396 Link
should have said blame the referee perfect10 (Wexford) - Posts: 3929 - 13/02/2017 21:39:58 1956419 Link
Replying To perfect10: "should have said blame the referee" Just might be an exaggeration. There are about 180,000 Limericks (iPhone spelling) people and there about 10 of us, at most commenting here, most of us cranks and fecal matterstirrer types. So no most of us do not hate Wexford. Now if you were to mention Tipp. Well that might be another matter. Oldtourman (Limerick) - Posts: 4316 - 13/02/2017 22:23:08 1956442 Link

Janesboro, I think if you look at my posting history, I never blame the referee, I have little or no interest in football so was certainly not part of that. Blaming the referee is just avoiding the reality of the reasons a team loses. Last thing I am saying on it, it would be better if Limerick moved on too because they could yet top the division and they play Galway when I wish we were playing them (last game) This weekend? Cork v Dublin Clare v Kilkenny Waterford v Tipperary Galway v Wexford, Limerick v Kerry Laois v Offaly I laugh when I hear people say Galway will bring Wexford back to earth!! We are not on cloud 9 over a league win in January, of course it was great to beat Limerick for the first time in 12 years but I think everybody now looking to the weekend match. Hard ask to go to Galway. Can't see us winning it. Pinkie (Wexford) - Posts: 4100 - 15/02/2017 11:03:16 1957004 Link
Smart money would be on Limerick at home beating Kerry, especially after the impressive win they chalked up against us in the Hurling League last month. However the pressure is off us now for the moment and we seem to get stronger the longer games go on, so I think the scoreline might be a lot closer than the neutrals expect.

I put up fair analysis on why I expected Waterford to beat Tipp and how important the KK game is to Clare. Similar for the other games.

I'd suspect Limerick will win it but there'll be no hammering or anything like that. There's more pressure on Limerick than Kerry tiobraid (Tipperary) - Posts: 4119 - 15/02/2017 12:36:35 1957047 Link
A number of my hurling posts don't get put up but you can say anything about football and it'll be grand. Split the forums into Hurling and football. Hurling is getting lost on this forum! tiobraid (Tipperary) - Posts: 4119 - 15/02/2017 12:39:49 1957049 Link
