Youād have to feel sorry for Pat Simon but The Dow has been setting the heather ablaze
Simon got his chance against ye and made a balls of it.
peter Casey struggled the last year nap were in the club Ireland and looked tired that whole season. Itās possible the extended break will do him the world of good and have him back full refreshed for the all Ireland series in 6 weeks time. Heāll get a few games with the 21s and challenges. We ruined hannon bringing back too quickly from injuries in the past.
Gillane is a grand option off the benchā¦ Let the Dow do his thing for 50/55 mins and bring in Gillane to stretch them.
Heāll tear it up for the 21s and either start or come in off the bench for the Munster final. Once he comes in at all heāll start after that.

You would have said the same a few years before Stokes, Galvin et al came on the scene. Limerick will always be a regular div 4 or 3 team but weāll get good teams again in the future.

Iād have massive worries about conlon v Mike Casey and I presume theyāll stick tony kelly on Dan morrissey which would be another massive worry.
Ah Iāve never been that impressed with him, strikes me as the kind of guy who will do well in a league game against Offaly but not in the cut-throat of championship. But I guess he must be showing the required aptitude for work which Kiely craves.
The last time nap got to the final Peter Casey wasnāt on the senior panel. What are you on about? Spoofing again?
Donāt be worrying kid I am sure those lads arenāt Limerick by 7

He didnāt refer to him playing for Limerick and in fairness he was quiet that summer in 2016 in both U21 games against Cork and Tipp. Shows where we are at that he isnāt being rushed back. Unfortunate for Pat Ryan but just shows the depth we have up front.

Iām talking about his general form for club and county. He was poor for the 21s and never got going for nap.
Thank you that muppet is ready to jump down my throat any chance.
If I am correct casey managed one point v cork and was subbed off just after half time v tipp in 2016. He was wrecked. We shouldnāt make the same mistake rushing him back for a Munster final. Let him find his feet and fitness.
The 21s and nap never got going at all that year. Nap understandable.
The 21s was mind-blowing bad
Give your fanny a wipe and donāt be so precious

Limerick to win this I feel.
More settled and consistent. A lot of question marks about Clare.

Exactly he had his appendix out just before Christmas was back for the Slaughtneil game and then played the 2 Cuala games while injured the second day. No point rushing him when things have being going well.
Happy with the team named, Pat Simon is unfortunate but thay goes to show the strength of the panel.
I think @anon32894817 alluded to it well. M Casey battle with Conlan is key. If Clare play as badly as they did for large parts of last weeks game against Tipp weāll win handy.
Really looking forward to it now.
He had a hand injury didnāt he? He was probably working away at the fitness stuff and would have been only waiting to get the sharpness back, he has enough hurling to be up at speed already.
Itās all well and good minding a fella but you need to get your best players put on the field
