I genuinely think ye approached the game a little too blasee and paid the price. Thatâs a lesson in itself. Granted ye havenât made life easy for yourselves for the rest of the year but if yere luck enough to get a bi tomorrow, itll be a price that might have been worth paying. I donât think yeâ'll make the same mistake twice.
Minor ball is the pinnacle of a players career
Itâd be one thing if this was a once-off but the vast majority of these lads did the same thing not two years ago against the Dubs. The make life very difficult for themselves and a couple of these lads are probably in their last championship so they shouldâve been expecting a big showing from Mattie Kennyâs boys.

Would I be right in saying there is an absence of good stickmen in that Galway backline? I know Padraic Mannion has had some great days in the jersey and yesterday was an aberration, but iv never considered him a natural hurler. He hit a sideline ball back out over the line yesterday, and then picked Rushe out with a long range free, but there probably is nobody in that area of the field any better than him for these tasks.
In fairness though , Joe probably had his worst outing in years. Heâll never do that again.
Stop plĂĄmĂĄsing us Mike. Stick the boot in while weâre down. Itâs what weâd do.

Theres nothing won yet kid and truth be told weâre still at the same place we were at the end if the league. Maybe after the provincial finals and a couple of qualifiers we might have a clearer picture but right now itâs as you were
Weâve been at it for generations. Wonât change now.
Galway are the best team in the qualifiers by a bit. I still think them and Kilkenny are the only 2 teams capable of turning limerick over.

Dublin will give Limerick a game. A full strength Wexford would. Waterford have been disappointing this year, but again with a full team theyâd have a good go. Clare could. I dunno. I donât think cork are great and they stayed with them, but you just get the feeling Limerick will just do enough in most games. They havenât looked in trouble for a long while
I wonder is there still the same opposition to this statement now

Daithi is good enough to play anywhere in the backs. Your man Cathal Mannion is windy no matter where he plays.
If Canning commits for another year (which Iâm doubting) he must play CB. Iâd be happy with Daithi in any of the other five defensive positions.
