I didnāt think there was need for a 3rd tier but going on this year we might,I thought Sligo would win but didnāt think theyād win by as much.Theyre going well,the funny thing is a lot of Sligo fans would have gotten rid of McEntee 2 years ago.
They had a good 20s team a few years back handāt they? Must be coming through.
Limerick have been miles off it underage lately.
Sligo have won Connacht minors and back to back 20s so have some good prospects alright Iām sad to say.We are trying to replicate them in fairness and there seems to be green shoots underage but time will tell.Sligo missed out on promotion by 2 PTS I think this year.But looking Kildare are not a Division 3 team or Down but the league doesnāt lie
The best performing underage county in Connacht over the past 5 years Iād say.
Yeah I wouldnāt argue with that.Lots of good underage work going on.

Mrs Hannon is a breath of fresh air on Ireland AM.
A bit of WOW too. 
Correct
Seamus Flanagan gave up his Radiology job for the JP funded Unijobs apparently, working as a recruiter alongside many, many other hurlers.
Kinda depressing - 4 kids and a borderline full time professional sports role clearly makes jobs like the ones in Healthcare with that much risk involved nearly impossible.
Heās been gone from the hospital for a while but heās in Verizon not UniJobs, I believe.
Itās grand for him to a degree though, he has a few years experience as a radiographer, heāll walk back in there when the kids are a little older.

Ah - itās funny how rumours etc get picked up incorrectly along the way!
A radiographer would have to work all sorts of shifts. Wouldnāt suit an inter county hurler.

He definitely gone to Verizon alright, heard that from another radiographer.
Panel gone away abroad again this week/weekend?
Theyāre gone out to the Sandy Lane in Barbados to put the feet up.
Killarney most likely, definitely not abroad anyway.
What are the thoughts on Cork?
We will need to perform for the whole game tk get a result imo. And defensively they will test limerick like no other team in the competition.
Shane Barrett is the obvious man to tie down on their side.

Theyāll be dangerous but still gave up over 20 scores to an average and misfiring Dublin side yesterday. Offaly put 3-19 on them. Theyāll cough it up as quickly as rack it up and Limerick will not be as forgiving as the other two.
Cork seem to have stagnated a bit since the round robin game in PUC whilst Limerick have upped it around 20% and I would expect further improvement on Sunday week. No team has beaten Limerick twice in the same season under John Kiely. I donāt expect that to change.
