Something about watching this Limerick team is good for the soul. Such flair & risk in their play. Won county hurling championships under many past Limerick players . Tom Ryan, Eamon Cregan, Brian Begley, Ciaran Carey, Mark Foley. Well done #Limerick . Hard luck Deise. #LIMvWAT

Nickie Quaid plays a near perfect game every day for Limerick. He never makes a mistake. Goalkeepers have to be respected in the same context as outfield players & he has to be strongly recognised as a HOTY candidate along with Gearóid & Tom. #LimerickGAA @LimerickCLG #GAA 🐐

Great year overall for @WaterfordGAA and Liam Cahill has done a great job. Bitterly disappointing to lose a final but they can hold their heads high this evening. https://t.co/6qaRIZUFG8

The Joe McDonagh final should be on every year before the Liam MacCarthy. No offense to minors but it's more important the GAA work harder to showcase the kind of quality that is now there.
