All Ireland Hurling Final 2018

Frees, sideline cuts and penalties (quasi or real) are also a large part of scoring in modern hurling. 3 points in open play and 1-10 in total in an All Ireland final is fair scoring.

All the one to us kid

for 55 or 60 minutes he was stone useless yesterday, for 10 or 15 minutes he did ok but won no ball. he hit a few long range scores unopposed which looked very good and he hit a 21 yard free very very well. the hyperbole is amusing.

A heap of Limerick people around the Luas stops in town, struggling with the machines.

:smile:

How long is the polish s&c lad with Galway? Was this his second season ?
I’d heard from a reasonably well placed source that they weren’t too happy with him this year. That he seems now to be very much one of these guys who can get a team very fit but isn’t great at actually conditioning the team on an on going basis.

I know there’s a tendency to blame the ref or the line in lots of GAA defeats, but Donoghue surely could have brought on subs much earlier given Limerick were on top in lots of individual battles and some lads were given a couple of positional switches too.

Niall Burke was an obvious first sub for a misfiring attack, but Conor Cooney probably didn’t deserve another few minutes after coming back on from the blood injury - Flynn should have been on earlier. They were in trouble at 2, 4 and 6 and didn’t bring a defender on until the 57th minute. I’m not sure Killeen was the answer but Joseph Cooney could have been pushed back perhaps. Is he reluctant to give young players a shot? Somebody like Thomas / Tommy Monaghan not worth more game time?

Will you go away you miserable cunt. Joe Canning played 50 thousand of us nearly on his own and almost bate us. He’s the greatest hurler alive.

Have some grace you cunt

A happy one.

simpletons are generally happy

He was noticeably fucked. Mul bate him to a ball down into the corner in the first half after starting his run 20 yards off him.

Donaghue needs to take a lot of the blame for yesterday’s loss

I hope you enjoy it in whatever fucked up way you can.

Repeatedly burned, it wasn’t fair to leave him on

That’s bollocks too. He picked a team that hasn’t been beaten in two years. Limerick were fresher and out hurled them for 65 minutes. They outscored us by 8 points in 10 minutes so his subs had an impact.
