Limerick GAA 2022 - Dual Kings (Part 1)

They used to big time with their mobility when their short passing game got going. I think they are kind of ripping up the playback this year though?

The regrading to 17s and 20s along with the lack of third level competitions is a huge ballz for them with the profile of their team. Iā€™d say theyā€™ll take a free swing and be back with a serious team in 22.

A worthy cause.

Looks like they wonā€™t have much time to stop at each club for tea and biscuits.

From the Cork Examiner.

Limerickā€™s SHC Appearances Record:

ā€œGraeme Mulcahy, since his 2009 debut, has lined out with Limerick on 46 championship occasions and would leapfrog leader Mark Foley (48) should the reigning All-Ireland champions and the Kilmallock attacker enjoy at least three championship outings this summer.ā€

Youā€™d nearly take Mulā€™s longevity for granted. And to think most of his career was spent with the ball being lorried into him as high as possible.

Heā€™ll surely hit the half century.

Hard ground, heā€™ll be flying it again.

Poor old Seanie Tobin had to live through the whack it era and never got the benefit of the diagonal ball Mul got in recent years.

What a player. To think about three or four years ago I reckoned heā€™d be confined to impact sub appearances from then on. Sometimes itā€™s really enjoyable to be proved wrong.

All we need is one shoulder from him and weā€™ll know itā€™s gonna be a good year.

It will surely go down as the greatest shoulder in the history of the GAA.

Would anyone have the top ten in that list?

Itā€™s not even closeā€¦ It ended Cork as a hurling county.

Class player, well-deserved. A great example of what pure hard work can do; and for a diminutive figure, heā€™s as good a tackler as is in the game.

Although in the round robin era, where Limerick are half-decent, youā€™d imagine that appearance record will be smashed by players like Lynch, Kyle, Finn; injuries permitting.

Those lists are fairly meaningless now with so many extra games. Pretty much all the scoring records and appearance records of the past will be broken fairly soon. Itā€™s kind of sad in a way.

Cillian Oā€™Connorā€™s football scoring record will be hard beaten. The prick.

Between Mul and Foley youā€™ve every season back to 95 covered. 26 seasons between the two of them

Thatā€™s a grand team. Good to see Dempsey back in the 15.

Nice to see weā€™re not taking the league too seriously.
