Limerick GAA - All-Ireland senior hurling champions 2018

Gillanes point on 59 minutes was absolutely glorious.

I havent stopped crying all day.

This group of young lads are beautiful in every way - they have loads to learn and improve on but they never, ever give up. How many games this year have they looked beaten only to claw their way back into it? And not by hip and whip either but by smart, composed hurling. If we can improve our shooting accuracy even slightly we will be putting up big numbers ā€¦ This can be worked on tho - we have the raw ingredients all over the field and the spirit of the team is just immense. Finn and English are a fucking joy to watch - not two fucks do they give.

Gonna be a step up again the next day tho ā€” we got a break today in that the game probably came a little early for some of Tippā€™s bigger players and they were way off form today. The speed and intensity of the second game looked up on our one on a much bigger pitch we will need to up it from today ā€” Cork could be down a few players by then tho with another big day out against Tipp next week.

Lots of people lauding Quaid ā€“ Iā€™m not knocking him but I thought at least 4 puck -outs went out over the side line?

Finn and English are beautiful men.

Lots more to come from Lynch who took a couple of big scores but was in and out of it.

Hego is a power house - just needs a bit more belief when running in on goal ā€” hope the groin injury was minor.

Lotā€™s more to come from Hayes but his work rate was unreal.

Get Peter Casey back and the other NaP lads pushing for a start in training and weā€™ve a great shot at a semi final this year ---- Lotā€™s of potential but the team have to learn from today and drive on.

Kinnerk has these lads humming, Iā€™d say heā€™s due a lot of credit

He is not a giant but he is brilliant in the air. Every time it goes in high to him you expect him to win it. Made two or three outrageous high catches that led to scores from play or pointed frees. He seems to tire physically late in games but hopefully that extra fitness will come in time.

Interesting to see what way we set up personnel wise for the inside line when Casey returns. 2 from Mul, Gillane and Caseyā€¦

Weā€™ve a bit of depth now, thankfully,

Pete Casey wonā€™t be back from injury for cork Iā€™m told.

Donal o Grady is a tipp apologist.

Weā€™ve depth from midfield up no doubt but Iā€™m a bit worried about the backs we donā€™t have a huge amount of options if key men like Byrnes or Hannon got injured

I havenā€™t watched it back, but I think you have to be ruthless. Full-back is not a position you can fuck around with. Forde isnā€™t blessed with massive pace and was never going to run rings around Hickey but he still didnā€™t cope all that well. I wouldnā€™t discard him, but Iā€™d be willing to give Casey a shot against Cork.

What a pile of scutter on an otherwise entertaining thread. Go away.

The man talking :roll_eyes:

I think if kiely was going to drop him heā€™d have been subbed at halftime. I reckon heā€™ll start him v cork.

What a great victory, just in the door. Great day to be a Limerick man.

Our lads did us proud. Minors won as did the primary team. Great great day.

Peter is a corner forward. Michael Casey is a full or corner back.

Iā€™m more talking from kielys POV. He didnā€™t sub him at halftime and he was much better after halftime so itā€™s unlikely heā€™ll be dropped.
