Be a monumental task to keep us in Div 2. Aside from Louth, I canât see too many victories for us next year, and theyâll feel the same about their match with us.

Iâd always back the team on the way up to stay up. Momentum is huge.

Just ask Norwich
6 points are nearly safe across the divisions. Kildare and Laois both got relegated with 5.
Itâs a bit of an ask but they have a nice spell to look at things, play the county championship etc.,
They deserve a bit of recognition from the CB as well, wonât do any harm.
Obviously depends on how many we lose to the seniors.
Something like:
Chanley
Thomas Keane Lyons/FOC
Hurley Quilty Coughlan
Stokes Reale
Hego CON English
AOC POD SOB
Whelan will be there or thereabouts too; Kirby, OâDĂĄlaigh, Scully, Davy.

That is six serious forwards at this level.
Do you think CON, AE and CC wonât see championship game with the seniors which will knock them out of contention for the 20s?
Canât see CON not featuring for the seniors anyway
CON will play. So heâll play vs Clare and be missing for the rest. And heâll be a massive loss.
The other two might, but definitely not guaranteed.
Heâd be getting gametime in my book also.
I think the 20s comp is supposed to be run off by mid May.
In that case Limerick seniors might keep him in reserve until they finish the 20s campaign.
CON AE and CC wont feature for the seniors. Kiely knows the year is gone. It was good while it lasted. Major rebuild over the next 18 months.

Even without OâNeill, thatâs a serious looking forward line and team. Probably favourites for the AI.
I hope heâs not playing against Cork because I have a sneaky suspicion weâll be under pressure in Ennis.

Even worse
Ha?
Favourites with CON, donât think we are without him.
Ballwinning, scoretaking, work rate; you lose an awful lot. Liam Lynch is out as well who would be the most likely replacement.
Thereâs also a disruption issue, which I guess every team has, when you are training & playing challenges without your best players regularly. Tipp donât have many (any) 20s on their senior panel and are apparently going well.
Surely Cork are the favourites having won both U20 and minor by double figures last year?
Huge difference between u17 and u20 IMO, and Limerick have a slightly better crop on the age.
Weâre losing Joyce and OâLeary (Kingston wonât let them play a minute) with Flynn likely to be out for a fair bit of championship. Our 3 best players out for the round robin.
I see Limerick only losing OâNeill. Either way itâs shaping up to be a cracking championship.
Cummins is supposed to be a good coach but i canât see them contending. Waterford and Clare will be interesting - Clare in particular have a few lovely hurlers on the age.
If I had to call it, I see a Cork v Limerick munster final again but home advantage to swing it to the Shannonsiders on this occasion.
Cork 20s looked good the other night against a fine big KK team. Albeit a lot of changes were made second half.
Did you think? I thought they looked poor enough and they should have put Kilkenny away earlier. Felt they looked very rusty.
Theyâll walk Munster.
