An all ireland winning Manager but yes we might need a new man

Ok puke

When was the last time Dowling played well for club or county?

Like the rest of the Limerick senior players, 2014 v KK. They were mentally finished that night.

Saw a stat posted elsewhere. It was his fourth championship match v Clare. He has still yet to score from play against them

Bad_Winner · July 10, 2016, 8:53am

They were like a group of punch drunk boxers out there.

Been like that for two years. …half of them will never hurl for Limerick again… Just have to sit back now and watch the shit storm

Last year I’d say.

Bad_Winner · July 10, 2016, 9:08am

What game?

glasagusban · July 10, 2016, 9:08am

Tipp

Bad_Winner · July 10, 2016, 9:11am

Seriously? He scored a point from play

anon61956325 · July 10, 2016, 9:13am

My understanding is that he has just become principal of a school and has a young family and doesn’t have the time to commit to it.

anon61956325 · July 10, 2016, 9:15am

He put himself about that day but that doesn’t mean he had a good game.

glasagusban · July 10, 2016, 9:16am

Did you go google it? Watch it again if you like, he was v good in that game when few players stood up. Two of Hannon’s points came from balls Dowling won and laid off for example. But yeah that’s the last very good game I saw him play.

Bad_Winner · July 10, 2016, 9:17am

Yes I had to because he has been especially unremarkable for years. He is just bad at this stage

glasagusban · July 10, 2016, 9:17am

Most of the limerick players are

There was a stage in the second half yesterday when a player was getting treatment. Bugler was niggling him and winding him up and you could see Dowling was getting hot.

He threw a few shapes back at Bugler and when the ball came in and broke into space Dowling tore off after it mad to flatten a Clare lad with a tackle. Dillon came onto the ball at jogging pace and Dowling at full stride no more than two feet behind him as he went down to rise the ball.

In half a dozen strides Dillon was 4 yards clear of him. Think Dillon eventually made a balls of it and James Ryan scored but it was a great example of Dowlings lack of mobility/athleticism as he was going full tilt in pure anger yet Dillon left him in his wake.

What was the name of the book the county board brought out this year?

Ambrose_McNulty · July 10, 2016, 9:40am

That’s a great anecdote about what a cunt Bugler is.

anon61956325 · July 10, 2016, 9:42am

A right gormless cunt
