Hopefully the Sarsfields match will be on in Kilmallock and not the Gaelic Grounds. Would be a great atmosphere if it was on in Fitzgerald Park.

Na Piarsaigh won it and went against the wind. Cocky hoors.

15453

Game will be in Kilmallock on 9th November Dodgy. Already confirmed.

[QUOTE=“dodgy-keeper, post: 1033317, member: 1552”]Congrats to Kilmallock. Enjoy the celebrations @balbec

It will do Limerick’s league campaign in 2015 no harm for the Na Piarsaigh boys to get a break over the winter now. They’ll be winning plenty of county titles and Munster club titles in the years ahead. Hopefully Kilmallock can have a right cut at Munster this year.[/QUOTE]
Ah nothing to be scared of. Davey can relax

did NaP have to use any of the county minors from their jun A side in next weeks jun A decider?

15456

Peter Casey came on with about 10 mins left. Big plus for Feohanagh.

15457

Thurles scraped by them a couple of times in recent years on their own turf so hopefully they’ll have some better luck in a few weeks time.

Yeah, I was impressed with them today. Na Piarsaigh were certainly below par but they’ve been the team to beat over the last 4 years. In the years Na P didn’t win, the team that has beaten them has won it out.

Gavin O’Mahony was the big positive, I thought. Hasn’t had a good year to date but was excellent today when he was most needed. O’Donnell got MOTM but he picked up a lot of loose, handy ball as O’Brien was so positionally inept. Walsh was flying until the red card and he’ll be a big loss the nest day. I’d expect young Hanley will start midfield with Paudie O’Brien (who needs a fong up the hole) dropping into Walsh’s spot at wing-back.

I thought Philip O’Loughlin was very solid. No spectacular clearances but worked very hard and got in a huge amount of little touches, hooks and blocks. Liam Hurley also. Bryan O’Sullivan was better than I’ve seen him in a long time and did a lot of dirty work, to his credit.

I didn’t see the Cork final so I can’t comment on Sarsfields. Should be a decent game though.

15462

The Sars wouldn’t be too hot, the Cork championship is bearly Intermediate standard at this stage.

15463

Is it that bad?? Any reason for this in particular do you think?

15464

No team with many county players, the drop off would be sharp outside of those players.

Similar enough to Tipp, a lot of clubs with little enough concentration of quality players.

And Galway maybe? There seems tobe talent coming through in cork though.

We might be better off playing in Limerick. Great atmosphere in the fair green alright but I think it got to them against Thurles. Still, the team are more experienced now.

Walsh was hurling great. Stupid retaliation after getting clipped by Downes. Young Hanley is a good prospect alright. A few great interceptions. Needs to work on the distribution though. Paudie might be better off wing back.

Who got man of the match

15469

O’Donnell the wing back, Joe.

Good stuff out of your lads @balbec. Great for Limerick hurling in that we don’t need one team dominating and the NAP lads get a break.

Should LImerick be playing Gavin O’Mahony @ wing forward?
