The Dow & Niall Moran did both get hat-tricks in 2012 but against Antrim & Laois respectively.
Dowling is in for Morrissey. Flanagan for Casey. The rest remains the same as last week… Happy enough with that. That’s a strong team but probably a little short on pace
5 changes I believe
Is the Byrnes/Lynch thing purely recent or has there been a bit of bad blood for a while?
I’ve been sent the limerick team but I can’t release it for 22 minutes. All I will say is your minds are about to be blown
One change- Byrne’s for Dan morrissey
Byrnes In Dan m out

Kiely’s going horses for courses in the half back line it would seem
I’d prefer if we started Flanagan personally.
But Kiely obviously knows best, lets be having ye, ye bosca ceoil cunts.
I’d imagine flanagan isn’t fully fit and that’s why he isn’t starting. I’d agree I’d prefer any combination of the dow, p Ryan and casey/Graeme coming on ahead of flanagan. I think he’s a starter that needs to grow into a game. Hopefully he gets a chance v tipp from the off.
Limerick with the win. D Hannon motm.
Oh shit, is the game over? Must have slept through it. Good we got the win anyway. Hannon is a great bit of stuff
Good man PJ.
Two changes for the minors, Coughlan is out, he’ll be a big loss. Casey is in for him, I don’t know if he’ll actually line out at wing-back. Lynch replaces the Effin man in attack.
They have to win this one.

What’s the scenario for the minors? Lose and they are gone? Win and it’ll go down to the last match?
Lose and they’re gone. Win and they are on 4 points with head to head over Clare, who have yet to play Cork the favourites to win it out. However Tipp also have a win, so essentially the Minors will have to avoid losing on the last day too
WIn both games and they are certs to go through, lose and they’re gone as @Breaking_my_balls says. 3 points could be enough.
It’s a three-horse race for two spots really, as I don’t think Tipp will turn around the scoring difference.
