Hon ta fuck
Limerick doing well here. 2 pts up at ht in a tricky away tie.
According to Limerick radio Westmeath more up for it with Limerick struggling with the intensity of the game. Limerick were behind 1-7 to 2-2 at one stage.
It’ll be competitive up until fifty minutes then Limerick will win by 8-10.
A lot of panic talk now about restoring those who were dropped.
Well done to both teams for serving up a competitive fixture!
How is it that in hurling a weaker team can stay with a ‘stronger’ for a half, but invariably the stronger team will open up in the 2nd half and win by a huge score? I have no doubt that the same will happen here and Limerick will win by a cricket score in the end. But you see that same pattern time and time again,
You see that in all sports mate.
Limerick goal, all over.
3-8 to 1-9
Much more pronounced in hurling mate. All the stats and multiple peer reviewed studies bear this out mate.
Higher and faster scoring game mate.
Its psychological. Its very hard to get fully fired up when you are expected to win by a cricket score. Playing in front of your home crowd on a pitch you train on week in week out is also a factor. Laois in Portlaoise are the same, they gave Galway plenty of it two of the past 3 years.
Lightning now in Mullingar, commentator mistook it for a camera flash (seriously). Hannon about to come on.
Everyone will want Galway now. They are piss poor.
Clare the value bet now.
Is the 14/1 still available?
