Limerick GAA 2023-2024.... 5 in a row is not here

And he was critical of the difficult in getting messages to players during play.
“In the modern game you are not allowed get
messages on to the pitch. It’s a difficulty. What sport in the world doesn’t allow communication with the players, it’s pure bonkers. Pat Ryan I’m sure is paralysed on the line at times as well. You can’t get a message on to the pitch. You can’t hear from six feet away, here we are destroying our vocal chords. They’ll have to have a fine pot of money put away for the big claims that will be put in for damage to our vocal chords. They might want to have a rethink about what they’re actually doing. It’s madness, bonkers.

Some load of bollix. Four in a row winners need to be micro-managed through their sticky patches?

As opposed to what. Having a grumpy stubborn cunt on the line refusing to do anything when his corner back is getting cleaned in a Munster final

I thought Harnedy was the motm. Best I’ve seen from him in a number of years. Shane Barrett too was excellent. Fitzgibbon obviously as well was lethal running off the shoulder.

Massive game next for ye in Thurles. Win that and momentum is significantly building.

Hayes was getting water from the Limerick hurley carrier on that side at the 45 while a free was being prepared down the other end.

Dalton pushed in between them. I’d say Hayes told him to fuck off, the. Dalton jabbed him straight into the balls with the end of the hurley.

Neither umpire called it.

I certainly tiled up Hayes when he recovered, he cleaned out Dalton after that.

You’re trying to make some kind of relevant point there are you?

If only Lohan had gotten a message in to Nolan to mark up tighter it would have made all the difference :roll_eyes:

I really like Downey as a half-back and agree that he played well but I think Harnedy was way more influential on the game.

By the way, what is the rule for players coming to the sideline/management etc getting instructions at intercounty level?

I heard the same from a Corkie but he was unsure if contact was made :smiley:

No , the point being that Logan doesn’t bother his bollox one way or another and you taking issue with a manager who has won 12 more titles than him.

Bring back the water break

I disagree strongly there, I 100% think managers should be allowed send messages in. It’s not about micro-managing, even basic tactical alterations.

I can understand not wanting the maor foirne running onto the pitch but you definitely should be allowed have a person on the far sideline give messages.

This has nothing to do with any particular county, just as a general principle, the rule is silly.

No. It slows the game down. The helmet rule was brought in to copperfasten the ban because Limerick were abusing it

I’m not advocating anything that slows the game down, just that the hurley carriers should be allowed to be mic’d. They can get the messages in in general play.

Why?

Limerick are paying for their cute hoor game-management ploys via contact lenses etc. This is the flip-side for them

To allow management make tactical changes.

As opposed to what, Clare trying to get lads sent off diving all over the shop. Give it a rest will you ffs

You have half time.

Tbh, I don’t think Limerick are the team that this hurts really. Generally, in recent times, we’ve had the advantage in these games.

It’s the teams who are against the run of momentum who would like to make changes.

What are the team of analysts with a private camera feed used for so?
