Very underwhelming team. I like that O Donoghue and Hayes are able to start but for Reidy to start again. Like what's the point. He ll be taken off before half time. Why not leave him do what he's good at, coming on as a sub. Id be disappointed for O Neill because I feel he deserves a start but I wouldnt drop Morrissey and O Neill isn't a corner forward. Best case scenario still sees Mulcahy having to come off in the 50th or 55th Minute and the subs bench is bare. Cork by 2 or 3 points for me. The changes that should have been made today will have to be made next week. bloodyban (Limerick) - Posts: 1710 - 16/04/2022 08:44:25 2411058 Link 0 |
Admittedly a bit disappointed with the team named. Mads (Limerick) - Posts: 366 - 16/04/2022 09:30:20 2411065 Link 1 |
Not disappointed one bit by that team. Shrewd management out of Kiely et al. actually! 15 men who won AI medals on the field of play, about 8-9 months ago. It's not that long ago, is it? foreveryoung (USA) - Posts: 1903 - 16/04/2022 11:41:52 2411083 Link 1 |
King Billy is at it again. Spoken with all the wisdom and knowledge only a true croquet or perhaps polo pundit can offer. This "bloke" is a bot designed to plant doubt. Does it repeatedly.

It ll be interesting to see if the team lines out as named. I think they will going on past evidence. A quick start is essential today I feel ,just to test Corks confidence . Much easier to start fast then reign a team in aswell. Iv nailed my colours to the mast in predicting a Cork win but I hope to God I'm wrong and I'm left with egg on my face for doubting K&K bloodyban (Limerick) - Posts: 1710 - 17/04/2022 12:26:08 2411289 Link 0 |
Not sure where the logic of a Cork win comes from. Ya we had a bad league etc but if our lads turn up, hard to see past them

Fantastic display. I genuinely thought there were signs of decline in Limerick. I'm absolutely delighted with that result . They finished so.strong aswell. Mike Casey, Diarmuid Byrnes,Hegarty...outstanding. Kyle Hayes set the tone with that goal. I hope his hamstring is OK.. bloodyban (Limerick) - Posts: 1710 - 17/04/2022 17:52:26 2411369 Link 1 |
Discipline was very good too. Hegarty was outstanding. If he took an extra second to look up, he might get 7 or 8 points a game. Gillane, Tom Morrissey and Graeme Mulcahy were middling, which is good because they will improve the next day. Pat Horgan took two points when they needed goals. He is only 11 points off Joe Canning after today for all time scoring. He still should have gone for the goal. stpats1886 (Limerick) - Posts: 39 - 17/04/2022 19:19:37 2411396 Link 1 |
If Gillane scores 1-2 from play and is middling, i hate to see what he'd score if on fire. Horgan should have been subbed- tapping over irrelevant scores instead of trying to go for goals made no sense Shocs07 (Limerick) - Posts: 372 - 17/04/2022 20:37:42 2411416 Link 0 |
Which terrace will be the Limerick terrace for the Waterford match on Saturday night? TreatyBoy (Limerick) - Posts: 108 - 17/04/2022 20:44:21 2411419 Link 0 |
I've to admit I was worried before today,I should learn really,never have doubts about this limerick team and management..gave up a few goal chances which better forwards would take..some players have huge room for improvement which is great..2-20 from play..think also we could probably have got 2 more goals..Nicky once again showed his class as a keeper,super save but puck outs were brilliant..half back line and midfield immense,and god bless the work rate and fitness of this group..may we continue to enjoy these great days..

I was worried before yesterday's game. I think that was obvious. What ever about kiely making positional switch I did not forsee him omitt a player to allow casey in and shove Hayes right up to that full forward line. Mads (Limerick) - Posts: 366 - 18/04/2022 09:07:22 2411452 Link 0 |
Limerick fans will be on the City End terrace next Saturday night. Decent group of Limerick city supporters today on Cork Terrace but more needed next Saturday night on City end for Waterford coming to town.

Looking forward to this Saturday evening game. It could be a fantastic battle. That the performances have improved so much since the league is such a relief . I really doubted them. I won't do it again. bloodyban (Limerick) - Posts: 1710 - 19/04/2022 08:55:39 2411473 Link 0 |
Brilliant, thanks very much.

It's something else but I've gone in my lifetime as a Limerick supporter, from fearing Cork and the sight of the red Jersey to feeling slightly sorry for them.. We were brilliant but they were so bad on Sunday it was ridiculous. skillet (Limerick) - Posts: 1057 - 19/04/2022 10:43:42 2411495 Link 1 |
Mads. Have to agree with your post. We are facing a titanic battle with Waterford. However, the last 4 championship outings v Waterford tell us the following; Tadhg DeBurca is the "best" Center back in the country - except against Cian Lynch Ozzy is one of the best hurlers in the country - except when playing Limerick. Jamie Baron almost always plays an All Star game - unless he's got WOD for company! Dessie is the best inside forward in the country- when he's not marking Sean Finn. I think we we will improve in our wides count and our touch was a small bit off. So unless Waterford have preformed miracles over the winter I'm confident we will handle them.

Dessie Hutchinsons confidence and hurling have been improving month on month never mind since last year. I think Finn is the best cornerback in the country so it will be a great battle to watch. Its years since de Burca played against Lynch. Ozzy has got more consistent this year he tended to drift out of some games up until last year. Barron is just a great player and 1 of the Waterford lads who consistently play well. As is WOD. I think Waterford are somewhere between ye and the rest of us. We will find out more about where exactly on Sunday. Love your confidence though!

Yep All of that is 100% true. I suppose have waterford closed the gap is the big question and until the 2 teams play each other in a championship match we won't be able to say. On the face of it Waterford certainly have a very very deep squad. A credit to the players and management group. They are without doubt in superb form. In lots of ways their match with tipp was a way better battle than our one with cork. A cork team in PUC with such little work rate when the heat came on was a serious surprise. But our lads deserve a lot of plaudits, after everything they have done to work as hard as they do is unbelievable. What a group. No matter what happens this year and indeed beyond they deserve nothing but respect. As for Saturday's game as if I couldn't be more thrilled after the result on Sunday, hearing John Kiely saying he wants a better performance in the Gaelic Grounds than those league displays was an absolute joy. The tone had been set already. Mads (Limerick) - Posts: 366 - 19/04/2022 12:34:52 2411542 Link 1 |
