Maybe Clare and Limerick can get together Joe and go halves on a decent manager

Does the ball need to come out of the hand before the strike with the palm when someone’s hand passing it? As in a 2-part process - the throw and the palm/strike? It’s been a bug bear of mine for a good few years now. Lads just flip it out of their hand in a single motion most of the time. Using their fingers (steady on) to flip/throw to give the impression of proper strike.

Fucking terrible attendance today 30k for an All Ireland quarter final

That first Galway goal should never have gone in

Push in the back on the full back…

You overrate their talent massively IMO. They’re still bringing on Colin Ryan ffs and he arguably should have started for frees alone. They have one ball winning forward in Conlon and even he seems to go through long spells of bad form. Most of their best players are midgets who get fucked out of the way easily by bigger men. Even Tony Kelly can’t win many physical challenges and relies on being passed the ball by other players. Galvin is class in fairness. Their backs despite having a permanent sweeper still look dodgy at times and again aren’t physical enough. There is nothing Davy can really do about these issues and they’ll still be there when he’s gone. One underage team isn’t enough to contend against the better teams consistently

That Buff chap is having a bit of a meltdown on the hurling banter page after declaring with certainty that Clare were going to win the All Ireland a while ago. He isn’t well

Surprised Canning wasn’t nominated there

Buff is a super guy. He’s got great time for his fans too - he was really nice to @briantinnion today when tinnion got a little star struck around him.
