I know the results as we all know Limerick have a decent record against Tipp but Kelly won 2 AI medals and what 4-5 Munster medals? 07 was Limericks first win in Munster in about 6 years. Kelly had an AI medal in his pocket long time even before that.
2015 1-39 in 7 games
2016 1-38 in 7 games
2017 1-32 in 6 games
2018 1-40 in 13 games
That Tony Kelly is it?
Remarkably consistent for a fella thatâs hiding in plain site the whole time
Eoin Kelly wasnât in his prime for any of those things he won and he was still one of the best forwards in the country when Tipp were no better than Limerick in the post Nicky English - pre Sheedy years
Munster final 2017 - hardly featured.
Munster final 2018 - hardly featured.
Barely pucked a ball both days against Galway last year either when the chips were down.
Almost certain Shaughs made his first start in 2003??
Shaughs 2003 - Absolutely fucking unbelievable on his debut v Waterford in the game that was never recorded due to the health and safety issues at semple, was doing his leaving at the time. Scored 1-4 from play i think. He got a score into the Killinan End from the sideline under pressure in the second half that was just sheer class. Smashing goal too. He was double marked in the replay if memory serves me rightly.
2004 & 2005- We were awful. He ploughed a lone furrow with no real supply
2006 & 2007- He was excellent. In 2006 in Thurles v Tipp he fuckin went to town in the opening half. Tipp dropped a man in front of him and closed off the space. We didnât have the other forwards to take advantage. 07 he was superb. Second day out v Tipp and 3rd day out he was brilliant. Destroyed Clare and annihilated Waterford in Croker. All Star.
2008 - Nightmare stuff as we imploded
2009 - Shaughs had a very good year and was one of the main reasons a pretty ordinary side got as far as the Semi Final where we were annihilated. All at the same time as contracting MS at 25
2010 - Dropped by that Cork cunt.
2011 - Tried his best to return but the condition had set in and he knew the reactions were gone
I find it fascinating how the Limerick lads base their reactions to things on where someone is from rather than what theyâve said. It seems to be purely a Limerick thing as Iâve never seen anyone else on here do it. Is it an inferiority complex or something?
