Sometimes better to keep things this calm. There will be plenty room for 'auld' guff there after.

Thats for sure but was hoping for more talk here! I think if it was Limerick against Clare, Galway or Wexford for example there'd be lots of talk. This thread has been very active all year - up to this week! I have been well wide of the mark in seeing Waterford as Limericks closest challengers, Clare finishing bottom of the Munster group and Clare then beating KK but I'm sticking my neck out again and saying Limerick will more than comfortably beat the 3 point handicap. The talk of them being one of the greatest teams of all time (which I agree with) wont be justified if they dont win on Sunday. There's no doubt that very few of this Kk team would make it into the KK 4 in a row team - possibly only 1 or 2, so I'm struggling to find logic that this will finsih a close game. tiobraid (Tipperary) - Posts: 4119 - 13/07/2022 13:17:34 2431852 Link 0 |
Very quiet indeed I think it will be a classic final Limerick haven't flowed this year yet done enough each game if Cian lynch is out will be definite loss, but no official line on this yet. Kilkenny despite haven been beaten twice will perform in Croak Park always do. Both Managers are plain hurling men that don't make excuses so it what was a very good hurling year {mostly anyway} let us finish with a classic final without drama or discussing referees. I would expect Limerick to shade it, to match there teams of the 30s as they have a lot of options to get match ups right on such players as TJ & Walter Walsh Adrian Mullen huge diversity in there back line. KK will try to tie up Gillane who is there most potent & constant threat. Wont know what to look forward to after game AI is over will have to take up Golf clooney (Clare) - Posts: 872 - 13/07/2022 14:10:21 2431874 Link 1 |

It is quiet because modern GAA has shut everybody up. Players no longer seem to have a tongue, managers only give cliched answers to anything. ExiledInWex (Dublin) - Posts: 1102 - 13/07/2022 15:17:45 2431895 Link 2 |

They can lose this 1 and win the next couple they will still be 1 of the GOATS. Even if they don't do that 3 out of the last 4 is still pretty great.

Seems like Lynch is fully out with ankle injury. Real shame if true. blackspot91 (Limerick) - Posts: 1055 - 13/07/2022 17:44:12 2431927 Link 0 |
Heard that, leg in a boot, very tough on him after battling back for 10 weeks. Hopefully its only a precautionary wearing of the boot, but it doesn't look good.

Joe canning had a very interesting article a few weeks back and it gives you a great insight into why modern country players don't do media he did an interview early in 2017 but it wasn't published until the eve of 2017 semifinal v tipperary if galway had lost that game he reckons he would have been blamed for the loss courting publicity and not concentrating on the match and also the journalists involved didn't let him know it was being published on that Saturday

Yes they will and already are one of the greatest but if they are to surpass the KK 4 in a row team then they should be beating this KK team comfortably - I'm not judging them on whether they also get 3, 4 or 5 in a row but will be judging them (if they dont win comfrotably) on the fact that this KK team is nowhere near that previous KK team.

Well if people blame a player for doing an interview as costing them a match then more the fool the person blaming them. Are people really so stupid as to think an interview in the paper affects performance? Really? Performance at that level is hit and miss for all players and of the 30 players on the field on Sunday, 10 will have a mare of a day. Talking to the media or not. If a player doesn't want to talk, that's another thing. But promote the biggest game of the year and let those comfortable with talking do it.

Considering how they've grinded out results this year it's highly unlikely, if they were to win, that it would be by a decent margin. Certainly if it was last year i think it would be a different story. So i don't really accept that if they don't win comfortably that it puts them in a poor light. To be honest, they look like a jaded team. Thank god Gillane and Byrnes have been been keeping the scoreboard ticking over
