You can put Haleys fucking comet beside it if you want. No Limerick person gives a fuck

You seem to care.

Didnt think Limerick hurled that well really. As you said workrate was savage but they played better a few times this season.

Great to be there and delighted for the Limerick crew. The amount of GY fans that left with 62 or 63 mins on the clock was unreal.

All Ireland wins with an asterisk after them would seem to be the sweetest for the seethe they cause elsewhere.

We can’t dig ye or Limerick again? Forever why like? It’s the internet ffs.

I can’t believe I’m getting involved in this nonsense.

Limerick were excuting the mother of all chokes today. 3 scores in 30 odd minutes. ‘Praying’ for the final whistle. Sometimes losers win. But they’re still losers.

Up your fuckin bollox you miserable cunt you stuck the boot in with glee when ye won a Mickey mouse league game in Wexford park last year.Hang onto the Kirbys finger we don’t need it anymore!

that’s a clamping

I thought Kyle Hayes was the obvious call when I reflected afterwards, he seemed to be everywhere, no other Limerick forward had a great day out though Mulcahys point at the finish was just superb, was it he or Casey that had played the stray pass that led to the Galway point just before?

What a day though, I never felt such relief in Croke Park I think, felt a lump in the throat when they belted out Delores ‘Dreams’, the roar that Dowling got when he lifted the cup was beautiful.
I was personally delighted for my old pal Nickie, if there was all Ireland medals for being sound he’d have a hatful.
At the final whistle yesterday I embraced a chap I had never met 90 minutes previously, when I was saying it was over after the third goal he wouldn’t hear a bar of it,
What a day

[cluaindiuic]

You’d be declaring a 7 in a row in that case.

[Bandage]

Mulcahy played the stray pass for that point but redeemed himself with his point after it.

[Bandage]

Actually FotF Shane Stapleton makes a good point that Mulcahy would be a deserving HOTY given his clutch and consistent contributions throughout the championship.

And this putting in an effort in trash time when the game is lost is the biggest signifier of a cowardly outfit in sport.

The same cowardly outfit that beat Waterford in the final last year.

Yes absolutely. Given the demise of Waterford and Tipperary this year I am going to have to revisit the narrative of last years All Ireland

Market seems to have been taken down again

[carryharry]

Fitzgibbon won’t win it.

[johnnysachs]

Cork are probably sicker

[Massey]

Mulcahey or Flanagan should have got MOTM.Proud day for the kildimo/pallas club all the same @Aristotle

[PhattPike]

My God what a day. Christ we nearly fucked it away. With all the injuries in the second half there was no flow and you knew there was going to be a hape of added time. You knew Canning was going to go for goal towards the end, and was going to get it. But by the same token, I knew his last free was too far out and was surprised he seemed to go for it. Finished the game with Tom Condon and Ohhhh Richard McCarthy on the field of play. Two lads you’d have thought would never win an All Ireland medal. But they have them now, and they can carry them around in their back pocket for ever more, as is right and proper.

What a day.

[Bandage]

Flanagan won a serious amount of ball and did very well overall, but I have a feeling he wasted a decent few balls in the second half. He set up a couple of points through sheer doggedness too, putting a boot in to get a little kick on it away from an approaching defender to a Limerick player in space and so on.

Let me precis it for you.
Galway won, Waterford lost

[backinatracksuit]

I had a perfect view of an outrageous pass that Flanagan played in the first half which was miscontrolled (Hegarty??) better than his pass for the goal in the semi, he worked like a dog all day,

[Bandage]

Cian Lynch, was it? On the diagonal run again like v Cork. Kind of bounced up off his hurl and was swallowed hp.

[dodgy_keeper]

It’s just surreal.

From 2015 to 2017 we barely won a game of note. Then came out this year and beat Kilkenny, Cork, Tipp, Waterford and the reigning champions.

Most unlike us we consistently held our nerve in tight finishes. 2 points in the quarter final, forcing extra time v Cork and hanging on by a point yesterday. That Graeme Mul point as we were falling apart was sensational.
