David Riordan. Handy forward I believe.
Yeah, decent player alright.
Think his younger brother, Mark, is probably an even better prospect, really stood out for them last year and could be in and around a starting position for the Limerick 20s this year.
Think they are cousins.
Best forward they had last year - very good in the air and pacy. He will be a huge loss
Minor footballers beaten 2-13 to 0-10 by Tipp.
Some fuck you to every goal keeper in Limerick
Is he finished out field? Young Walsh is a prospect in goals
He’ll be there to kick 45s
I’d say it’s this new thing to use the keeper as a fly keeper.
He can kick frees too
100%. I suppose not much point playing him full forward only to never kick the ball to him
Anyone would want to be very special indeed to be better than him. A genius.
I wouldn’t say it’s any more a fuck you to keepers than playing Nicky, David McCarthy or Jason Gillane in there tbf (I know Jason has now relocated permanently, but still made the panel before that).
Kickouts are probably even more important than puckouts but if you have a fella who is unbelievable at kicking the ball at club level and they can run any bit at all, you’re probably not going to be able to afford playing them in goals. You’d want to be a serious club outfit or they’d have to be an unbelievable specialist keeper and pretty much refuse to play anywhere else.
Who’s young Walsh. We could prob do with Josh out the field but he is coming back from a horrific injury
Odd that Billy Lee walked away after getting the side to division 2.
When you look at the underage results the future is bleak. The juice isn’t worth the squeeze for most inter county players.
Why would he stay where he wasn’t wanted?!
I assume he means Kevin Walsh. Fine keeper and was in the squad at the start of the year but opted for soccer in the city instead.
Correct.
Why did they want him out when he had successive promotions and got to Munster final with a very limited squad ?
A very good question. He upset a few vocal squad members who rallied a bit of support and gave him unfavourable comments in the end of season reviews. He walked away then
Some players felt he wasn’t up to the job! Said players also got rid of Dempsey, didn’t want Mark Fitz as manager (wanted him as coach alright) and tried to get rid of this years coach.
