And after their 7 foot full forward got hurled off the field by our 5 foot full back 
you couldnāt make it up

I think wrestled is the word you are looking for.
Give it up ffs. He stood up to him and the Galway man wilted.

Lads, this is fucking brilliant. Weāve won the best all Ireland ever, beating Tipp, Cork, Kilkenny, Waterford and Galway and we still arenāt rated.
2 u21s in 3 years a lot of these lads won. Then a senior.
Anywhere else bar Limerick and the holes would be licked clean off them.
We were lucky though

Yer man wasnāt outhurled at all apparently, he was outmuscled by the lad 2 foot shorter than him! 
Galway might as well have sent in a gorilla with a Hurley tied to his arse

Iām not saying they are not good hurlers, essentially anyone playing inter county for a competitive team is a good hurler. They are not pure hurlers though, thereās no one on that Limerick team that is or ever will be a Joe Canning.

I canāt think of a modern day hurler that fits the term āpure hurlerā more than Declan Hannon. The man is utter class

Ya Joe never relied on his physical attributes.
I know a small fat lad playing junior b has the best wrists Iāve ever seen
This should keep this thread ticking over nicely until sometime tomorrow. 
I do think one of the big indicators in the league this year will be if 3-4 players who didnāt get a look in last year put their hands up. If, by April, weāre looking at the same 15 with the same cohort of subs, I canāt see us retaining our crown.

So good he had to be moved back to center back to make a spot for him? He struggled for years in the forwards.

So what? Joeās are once in a generation type players
Most of the Limerick team are around 23 ffs - give em a break.
Joe has it all, in the conversation for GOAT.

22-23 are probably the prime years for a hurler these days, given the commitment involved. Itās hard to keep the same commitment going once you leave college (if you leave college that is).
āYour hurling team isnāt that great because no one on it is as good as Joe Canning.ā Christ above.
His hurling debating is about as coherent as the rest of his ramblings.
Grand . Theyāre all done - washed up at 22.
Fuck away out of it now will you like a good man. Youāre all over the place.
But sure according to āexpertsā like @Bandage, Joe Canning is the weak link on the Galway team.
Iām just saying what you are saying regarding Limerickās chances in 2019, except more eloquently.
Who are the main candidates to break through? Obviously Casey. Next best chance is William OāDonoghue or the Dow I reckon. (Yeah yeah, na piarsaigh bias etc, but i think these are the best three hurlers that didnāt start last year). Condon?
