Quaids save has to win it surely. The year was done and dusted even if that had gone over the bar.

A gentleman Leonard is
Len is sound manâŚhe spent many a day hiding from Joe Player in Mary I and having to listen to Joe going on about Davy and Clare.
Len spent most of his time hiding alright but not sure if it was from Joe, the lads have the cushier number in Limerick,
Heâs going through a tough time, the poor fella. You couldnât meet a nicer man.
Leonard was unnaturally fit, with fuck all training. I was told that back in the 80s there was some TV show, kind of like the fittest family thing and Leonard got to the final where he was up against some army lad. They were sharing a room the night before and the army lad was preparing himself doing push-ups and stretching whereas Leonard fucked off and had six pints. Leonard bate the shit out of him the following day.

Iâd believe itâŚ
The new potatoes will do that to you this time of the year. Mind yourself but who am I to be advising a renowned good food expert.
Not this year Boxty. Very poor yield this year
Sometimes oulâ wet boggy fields come in useful. This year being one.
Aristotle predictions- Round 3.
It was a great year with the county, but itâs good to get back into club action; itâs been a long summer just arsing around really, the matches are going to come thick & fast now and whoever assimilates quickest will succeed. I suppose it does depend how hard certain big players were celebrating too, itâd be hard to blame them if their eye wasnât completely on the ball.
In Senior A, you have a local derby in the Well vs Ballybrown as well as the clash of the two favourites- NaP & Kilmallock. Ballybrown have no county players, and the Well have 3 but itâs still hard to see the Well not winning. NaP & Kilmallock should be a cracker, both looked very impressive in the first two rounds. I suppose youâd have to go with NaP but they were without more players for a longer period, so theyâll need to bed them back in. Doon should beat Adare.
Seen both Liberties & Monaleen recently, impressed with both. I reckon South Liberties just have that little bit more firepower, especiallyy with Nash back in there. Youâd have to fancy Murroe/Boher against Cappamore although they have struggled in the summer months, youâd imagine they should have everyone back. Hard to see Ahane not beating Knockainey also.
In Premier, weâre playing Mungret which should be a good one. Garryspillane face Bruff, who are obviously without Paul Browne now, a big player for them. I still reckon Bruff might just edge this, although it should be very close. By all accounts, Bruree are back in form and now flying it but again, Feohanagh have a lot more firepower, although will need Flanagan firing on all cylinders. Blackrock vs Pallasgreen will be a close one, I think Pallasgreen might just edge it.
I somehow missed that Hospital/Herbertstown vs Knockaderry was on last weekend, finished a draw which puts real pressure on Drom/Broadford who are playing Croom. Croom should be winning that really. Dromin/Athlacca should beat St. Pats too; theyâre by far the strongest team in that group.
Glenroe won the Judes 7s, beating Blackrock in the final. No real indicator for proper hurling but they got a good win over Effin in the last round and now play the other side to have won both games- Granagh/Ballingarry. Again, youâd expect it to be tight but I think G/B might just sneak it. Effin should bounce back and beat Claughaun/Old Christians. Newcastlewest vs Na Piarsaigh are both winless; I think NCW might just have enough to grind out a win.
SHC- Patrickswell, Murroe/Boher, Ahane, South Liberties, Doon, Na Piarsaigh
PIHC- Pallasgreen, Bruff, Feohanagh
IHC- Croom, Dromin/Athlacca, Newcastlewest, Granagh/Ballingarry, Effin

Adare will beat doon
Incredible scenes
Eoghan Mc, peter Casey and Robbie Henley are probably three lads that will obviously be in contention for the starting team next year. Iâd hope at least one of colin Ryan, barry nash, Ronan lynch and barry Murphy can also push on now too. Then thereâs wildcards like AlTC, Joy, jack o Grady, brian ryan, Ronan lynch and maybe somebody like Thomas grimes too. Grimes is one like a lot in an area we are not blessed in.
