That team has something about them, too much quality not to click soon. I saw more in them against KK over 2 games than against Limerick. Alright Limerick beat them but they battled hard to come up short.

On the other hand, Limerick were so poor against Tipp with such important players like McCarthy & Hickey getting such a roasting does not bode well for confidence when they meet a big team.

All in all as things stand, if Clare played Limerick in 3/4 weeks i would fancy Clare to do the business.

We are roaring.

In all seriousness.
Best 15 for Limerick imo are,
QuaidCondon - McCarthy - HickeyP O’Brien - O’Mahony - S O’BrienRyan - BrowneBreen - Dowling - HannonMulcahy - Downes - Lynch
Reasoning, Leave Richie FB, who else will do better at this stage? Condon is not a better option. Leave Gavin at 6, offer him protection & let him hurl away.Move Dowling CF, he’s a ball winner so include him in the play.Put Hannon WF, his scoring when on the ball in space is too good to ignore.Breen. May not have huge hurling but he frightens the shite out of wing backs.Downes FF, let him thrive where he always has.
Regardless of all of the above or swapping certain lads in or out, ye just haven’t enough to win an AI this or next year.

Agree. Like. Informative. +1. Well clamped. pint.

+2…

Dowling on the half forward line? You haven’t a fucking clue. The only place for him is full forward. His last game at inter county level at half forward was embarrassing. Spent more time on the ground after slipping trying to get to the ball than he did on feet. This idiotic selection is right up there with the apes that reckoned Hickey should be moved to centre back or wing back. If a player is playing well in one position leave him there. Don’t fuck him around in classic Limerick fashion.

You’re being a bit stupid yourself if you want to judge Dowling on an u21 game.

[Watchyourtoes]

I pretty much called the Tipp game once the teams were named pal.

[ciarancareyshurlingarmy]

I know a few of these…

Look tard, you’re a bad bluffer. Your tips are shit, your hurling knowledge not much better. Do us all a favour and kindly sign out.

[anon25556527]

You just said Shane Dowling should start centre forward on an inter county team. You can’t talk about anybodies hurling knowledge.

[anon25556527]

and by the way I tipped up a golfer at 50/1 yesterday and right now half way through the first round he is 12/1. You can lay him now and guarantee profit you cunt muscle.

[glasagusban]

While I partially agree with you, you also talked bollox about his last game at half forward.

Basically ye are both mostly right but also talking a goodly proportion of bollox.

[anon25556527]

It was nothing short of embarrassing for the lad against Clare.

[glasagusban]

Who the fuck gives a shit about that game, I can’t think of any other player who has more consistently stepped up and performed on big occasions in the last few years. He was outstanding on a humiliated team against Tipp and put others on the team to shame. Fuck off for yourself.

[Breaking_my_balls]

Dowling would do fine at centre forward. Fitness work rate and mobility are no longer an issue and have not been for the past two seasons. Big difference between playing centre forward and wing forward, different skill sets needed.

+1. He put himself about no problem against Tipp - chased one of their backs down 20 yards and put in a hook at one stage- His fitness certainly isn’t a worry and he is well able to contest his own ball. I’d certainly start him there for the next big test, which is more than likely next week, you can always revert to type if it is not working but as of this season he is our most influential player and is wasted in at full.
