‘We hate Nickie Quaid because he takes the knee the odd time to let the team reset.’
‘We hate Dowling because he gets excited after matches for his friends and ex team mates.’
‘We hate their sponsor because he goes in the dressing room after games. We were happy to take his money ourselves a few years back though.’
‘We hate Hegarty because he pulled one bad stroke in a league match.’
Laughable. But enjoyable all the same, Tipp and Cork were meant to dump this team out of the championship in recent weeks but here we are. Another title in the bag for a fundamentally useless team.
If you had a few camera angles on it I’d love to see it broken down.
Seaman flangans man is ahead of him when Reidy is in possession. As they both turn to run towards goal Flanagan hits him a bit off shoulder and keeps outside him and away from goal.
This defender was probably as much at fault as Nolan. If he’s inside Flanagan he’s able to cut off the space much quicker and gillane probably just pops it over the bar.
In 2018 he would have never hit that ball into the ground to bounce up like that. He gave Quilligan no chance.
Have to say, the Limerick management team got it very right starting Reidy. Conlan had a good game but when he looks back on it he’ll be a bit disappointed. Especially in the second half.
Get a great view of it here. Flanagan makes the
Long run out and the Clare chap follows him and try’s to cut off the short pass. Flanagan immediately spots this and slows down Rory Hayes? Run to create that
Room for gillane.
It’s excellent stuff.
Hayes surely should have stayed goal side of Flanagan. If he does they probably get away with it.
Flanagan really did do a pile of selfless work in terms of dragging that Clare defence all over the place. He was sprinting everywhere creating that space.
I dunno. I got the sense on Sunday that Limerick identified a weakness in the Clare full back line - and it was exploited. It was the winning of the game for a finish.
Flanagan still made an impact with the likes of his ball to Tom Morrissey under the Mackey stand, which was an outrageous score from Tom. No doubt Rory Hayes had a very good game too.
