Well done to the. Limerick young guns
Would anybody here know anything about the junior all Ireland Limerick won in hurling in the 50s or where I could find out about it?
I thought they won 3 junior all irelands back then. What is your question?
I didn’t even know that. didn’t we win a minor the same year? Just if there was any line ups or match reports id greatly appreciate it.
Minor was definitely 1958. Juniors were earlier than that.
Henry Martin’s second book has the details.

Thanks very much for that.
A few Kilmallock men on them. There is a bit in the kilmallock history book.
Didn’t we win a junior in the 30s as well?

1935 and 1941 as well apparently
Is that from Kilmallock town or nominally from the greater Kilmallock area (otherwise known as South Limerick)
Town . 
Daly seems a sound sort with hurling and the GAA in his heart. The other fella is a fully paid-for member of the Liberties Clique and his name belongs in the COTY thread.
Big Joe is alright
Yet Daly is making 100k off the gaa?
