Hurling Championship 2020 - The Year Limerick Blitzed

What harm, their actual coach played most of his hurling at full-back. As did their manager, of course.

Why isnt McInerney playing back in the full back line?

Clare are a shambles back there.

That’s the joke

The dive there from the waterford goalie :grinning:

:joy: lolz

He must have been watching Tony Kelly diving the passed few years

Goals the killer here. Fair play to Waterford they know it’s a weakness and are going for the jugular. Aside from that we are doing as well as could be expected, forwards working hard and slowing the Waterford backs. We have worked it out if defence well and are doing a good job keeping de Burca out of it but once the ball hits the ground around our 21 we are at panic stations.

Still the breeze to come and plenty of legs off the bench. Far from over

Much poorer at the rucks and reading the breaks than we’ve been the last two days

Ball watching

Our half backs are too pedestrian. We are good from midfield up but the backs lack real defenders, too many ball watchers.

Dessie on fire, the pass to Fagan was class.

4 clare players drew into him

The half line seems miles out from the inside line alright, no sense of them retreating to protect the D in time

What the fuck has happened to Barron? From arguably best midfielder in country, he’s gone very average

Why is SOK trying to scoop/flick the ball for the second goal? Get the basics right, block the ball. Get your hurl behind it. Very poor.

Great paw on Shanagher initially but the shot was no rocket and was very close to SOK. Should have done a lot better.

Ah they’re hard save when they bounce in front of you.

Jaime Barron has unreal balance. He can nearly run at a 45 degree angle

Barron has lost a yard has he? He’d usually be away there

Kilkenny won’t like the prospect of defending this hard running
