@Locke throwing traditional Kilkenny values like stoicism and modesty out the window here
I think we have a chance at 4 in a row but itās gonna be tough. Galway and KK will be much better this year. Clare had a lot of injuries to players last year but he looks to have developed a bit of squad depth as a result. The gap has closed significantly and any of these 3 could beat Limerick on their day.
Sure lookit, Iāspose that went when Cody.
Kilkenny, Cork, Tipp and Waterford are all on year one with new management. Youād expect them to be a bit behind as the new ideas are implemented etc.
Clare and Galway are further ahead and we didnāt beat Clare in 70 minutes last year.
CIan Lynch and Peter Casey were massive losses all the same. Youād think if Lynch and Casey are back and Hayes gets redeployed to wing back again weāll be a better side. Itās just if Clare or Galway can improve the bit extra again to challenge.
Are the Limerickās still seriously counting All Irelandās won in 2020 and 2021?
We know it would be hard for you to count multiple all irelands in a row.
You decided to throw 21 in now did you
A terrible waste of all those fingers
A tipp poster questioning the validity of a recent all Ireland
How could anyone seriously count 2021?
Shur Croker wasnāt even a quarter full for the semi finals and the Provincial Games were even worse
No one wants you to retire from the forum mate but you can if you want to I suppose. Limerick will walk the all Ireland this year. We canāt really see what next year will bring, but we have at least a 50% chance of winning it next year say. So itās 50/50 as to whether Limerick will win the five in a row.
That is the crux of his agitation.
Iād give us a better than 50/50 chance myself with the players we have coming through but Iām trying to be kind to them.
Youād want 2 new lads to make a starting spot their own this year, with another 2 making real impacts off the bench.
No and 22 doesnāt count either as it was July and the split season, we fully accept Tipperary are the reigning champions
Iād probably still give the nod to the all conquering Galway outfit of 2017 who won the last truly great Championship played in September with none of the round robin nonsense involved.
In reality none of Limerickās recent All Irelandās* count for much.
Ideally current panelists would stop beating people up as well
