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

[Bod95]

One particular poster here just hates Limerick, that’s entirely his prerogative (he’ll have to Google the meaning of that word), we get it, but on a serious note though the intense seethe that consumes him is not good for his well being and he needs to pursue more positive pursuits.

Telling the grandkids - ‘yeah, we did the five in a row in Munster back then with an essentially useless team.’

Fixed

[Jahan]

Fundamentally useless.

Meanwhile, our semi final has been fixed for 6pm on the Saturday apparently. Appreciate some teams have preliminary quarter finals and quarter finals to get through before thoughts turn to Croke Park.

It’s probably for the best if the Limerick run ends at the Munster Final. We’ve no more worlds to conquer and there’s too many lads from other counties driven demented. Farms left untended and children not fed due fellas crying over Hego et al.

You are taking the Internet too seriously if you believe that

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

It’ll hardly be that late? I was expecting 5 o clock.

[peddlerscross]

Fundamentally useless is a fantastic turn of phrase.

That’s bad news for a lad I was talking to yesterday who has the 8pm train home from Heuston already booked. Was expecting a 5pm fixture.

Still saying TBD on the official GAA website.

I think a lot of the experts will be a bit embarrassed if they ever look back over the “Stonewall Free” that Tony Kelly should have been awarded at the end of the game. At no stage in that passage of play had he possession of the ball, and if anything he obstructed Peter Casey from getting to the ball by running straight into him. Kelly’s swan dive didn’t do him nay favours whatsoever, an almost carbon copy of the dive vs Cork. Excellent refereeing by Liam Gordon.

What about the rugby tackle by Will O’ Donoghue after that. Was that not a free either? Liam Gordon had obviously let the game run for too long but he didn’t referee what was in front of him.

The Waterford game two years ago was at 5 I think.

Alexander got close to 10 years before he wept.

Jahan could be right 2019 was
6 pm wasn’t it?

[Jahan]

It was 5.30 last year I think but there isn’t much of a pattern to throw in times these days.

[peddlerscross]

2018 was 5pm.
2019 was a 6pm

I have a feeling the Football Semi Final in 2018 was 5.30pm and in 2019 was 5pm.

2021 was 5.00 which was pushed back to 5.30 thanks to the hay bales falling.

2022 was 5pm but the Football was 5.30pm (I think).

Again the GAA dont make things easy.

[Julio_Geordio]

They are mad for stupid throw in times this year. 5.15 or 5.45 could be a runner

[peddlerscross]

Its ridiculous stuff.

I think the AI Final Replays in 2013, 2014, 2016 were 5pm but 2019 was 6pm.
The 2021 Football Final was 5pm also.

When great teams tend to crumble they tend to fall apart at seams and it’s a total collapse.

I thought after the Waterford game that we in danger of running into that point. But I think we’ve rallied. We may be beaten yet this year but I don’t expect a meltdown. And it’s not the team grinding to a halt either, we’re without key players and that’s always going to have an impact and cause you to struggle.

I’m genuinely not sure how much we’ve improved like bar the natural profession you’d expecting from the season progressing.

I genuinely just think they went back to basics and went long into gillane.

Maybe they didn’t do that earlier because he was injured/not fit etc.

Teams just won’t let Barry nash free and they are man marking hegarty now as well.

Maybe kiely and kinnerk can throw another curve ball but I’m not so certain. If they’ve tried every thing bar maybe cian lynch making a return.
