more hypocrisy. Down on Na Piarsaigh without issue but won’t hear anything said about Ballygunner.

That would explain a lot. A lovely man.
@peddlerscross spoofing about ‘royalty’, we are the most successful club from Limerick in the Munster Club 4 titles from 5 campaigns. 11 out of 12 matches won.

Have ye any razzmatazz though?
I’d have good time for this current crop from Na Piarsaigh. The Latte Drinker thing was a bit of a wind up so I’m glad it worked.
Yer record in the last 10 years speaks for itself and yer performance in the 2017 final was one of the best the competition has seen in the last 20 years. Full of power, pace and skill.
Interesting to see how ye build on it in the next few decades. Ballygunner have competed in finals in 5 different decades now whereas Na Piarsaigh only one, so it remains to be seen whether Na Piarsaigh just have a freak golden generation or whether its something greater.
Kilmallock bring great razzmatazz to the competition too. That’s why this game in January is so intriguing.
That time Tony Considine ran 30 yards into the field to get stuck into Referee Colm Lyons face during open play against Thurles Sarsfields was something else.
Then the mad lunatic starts punching the air as he was escorted off, to get the baying home crowd going, The place nearly erupted.
Tony just gets them

Sure the club was only founded in 1968. The level of success of the last decade couldn’t possibly be sustained but I’d hope there’s a good enough base and stability to maintain as a stable senior club into the future.

And Ballygunner barely 10 years before
Ballygunnar have no All Irelands and we have wan
What’s your point?
To @peddlerscross comment about BG competing in Munster Finals across 5 decades, whereas NAP are a ‘recent’ team at the top table yet both clubs have been in existence for similar time periods…that’s my point
There aren’t really many comparisons to draw between the two historically, their curves have been very different. Ballygunnar came into existence around a decade and a half earlier and had success very early. They’ve had a number of periods of success or dominance with drops off in between. Na P started a small club and has grown incrementally. Increased underage success before @Bod95’s generation broke the glass ceiling and took the club up to senior and then the current lads went on an incredible run of success.

I did. Frantic.
I doesn’t tell you that they had to import a load of fellas from Kilkenny to win the championship in 1992, the win that kickstarted their modern era.
We have our very own simpleton Buff Egan type right here on TFK

We’d welcome Buff with open arms. He’d be fascinating to watch on here.
