Semi final, was it not?
Before
My time.

Probably my favourite Limerick match from my youth. Rained non stop all match, Cork started like a train and led by 9 or 10 points at one stage. Gary Kirbyâs goal really brought us back into it. Kevin Murray came on as a sub in second half and done the devil with a couple of goals. Quaids saves that day on his championship debut were outrageous. A man from Croagh suffered a cardiac arrest in the Mackey Stand and passed awayâŚâŚwhat a game to go out on.
Was that the game Pat Heffernan got a great flic goal too?
an overhead one, yeah.
That was a great day. We were on the open stand side up by the wall. Got absolutely drowned wet. One of the best days ever following them imho.
Iâm 90% sure thatâs the first championship match I ever attended
Some good players there.
7 from the West, 8 from the City, 11 from the East and 8 from the South. Fairly even split in comparison with some previous teams. And thatâs with no one from NCW either.
Good to see the 2 locals there too.
I was looking at the underage football groups.
NCW are Div 4 in u14 & Div 3 in u16.
Two good hurlers, theyâll be big additions to the seniors next year.
That game most definitely wasnât shown live.
Great spread of clubs there. Especially from the lower tiers.
No one from the Well, Ahane, Adare
Any big names absent?
Iâm going to say a fair few of them didnât play minor for Limerick - James Finn, Mark OâBrien, RuairĂ OâConnor, John English, Jack Fitzgibbon anyway and I donât think Donal Coughlan, Daniel Scully or Ryan OâNeill saw gametime.
Good to see club form rewarded. All of them made an impact for their clubs last year, even at junior level.
Not sure about the spine of the team though. Where are the prospective seniors?
Fuck them.
