Thereās a real hatred there between the two villages and itās great. Give me adare v the well any day of the week ahead of the cork champion playing the limerick champions or whatever.
Donāt you dare deflect that embarrassment Sunday our way!
Not a single year maybe, although how club teams perform over a stretch of 4-5 years I feel is very relevant. Ballybrown, the Well and Kilmallock all reaching All Ireland finals in the build up to that successful Limerick side of mid 90s. Kilmallock and Nap reaching club finals in the build up the current Limerick teamās success.
Decline of Cork intercounty hurling is directly related to the collapse in std of the big 3 in the City.
itās 1980 since the Barrs won Munster kid.
That will count for little when the time comes. The bandwagoners will know nothing but success and they will be bloodthirsty
Only one sub in last years final
Depends on the specific circumstances. Look at Ballygunner, youād imagine they will continue to dominate Waterford for the foreseeable future and their success is pretty much irrelevant to Waterford. They will remain a dominant club in Munster due to the pick that they have, and the players that they continue to bring through.
how many are on next years panel?.. sure Kilmallock had no lad starting last years final either.
This is the Munster rugby type element of the support
2023?
sound.
How many of the Kilmallock team have been part of a Limerick senior panel in the last 5 years?
10 or 11 Iād say?
Seven or eight. Hennessey, Paudie, Costello, Hanley, Mul, Reilly, Gavin, POL. But most of them are nearly done. Weāre in decline sure.
Havenāt the rest like Joy/COC/Woulfe/OāLoughlin x2/KOD all started on Limerick Minor & Under 21 teams too?
You forgot Chanley
You could look at Thurles over the last decade and be left just as baffled
Kilmallock kept up Limerick clubs record of not winning Munster since 2017. Bodes well as weāve pretty much won everything at IC level since. Good omen
Would the well and Adare be the most bitter rivalry in limerick?
I presume cappamore v pallas green and a few of the west clashes would be similar but in the senior hurling itās adare v the well and the well v ballybrown.
