Limerick U21 v Kilkenny U21 - AI Hurling Final

That’s the end for nearly all of them. Just guessing but I would think Hayes (2 more years), Grimes would be the only starters but a lot of lads on the extended panel will be there next year and the year after.

Mcnamara, hayes, grimes, Casey, murphy.
Don’t know joy’s age group.

Pretty much all the subs as well.

Boylan and Brian Ryan to come in also

Wolfe and O’Brien will be strong additions,we will be solid again next year but Tipp and Cork will be well ahead in Munster.

Yes both could have started yesterday and not weakened the side. Also Seamus Flanagan, Conor McSweeney O’Reilly.
Probably the most satisfying thing about yesterday (apart from ending Eddie Brennan’s managerial career) is that there is a big group of lads that didn’t play that just as easily could have being on the panel.

He can now fuck off back to being a prick on the Sunday Game

If Tipp are to be strong next year how could they have been so unbelievably shit the night they played Limerick this year? If it’s a complete turnaround then why didn’t many of the new batch play this year, it’s hard to recall a worse team wearing that jersey since the early 80s

Le touche is forever young seems to be u21 For the rest of his life.

Kilkenny’s last U21 win was in 08. Crisis?

They have won 5 senior all Irelands since then .

Just as a matter of interest, how many club have they won since then

Ballyhale have won 2 in the last 8 years.

That was a young Tipp team this year. A lot of them just out of or still on minor

Ballyhale x 2 and sin a Bhfuil ?

Yea. Certainly looks like the conveyor belt may be slowing down a bit alright

He is right though, one year is hardly going to make such a huge difference. Limerick have 8-9 still around next year, and Cork have more. Tipp will be up against it big time.

That Tipp team wasn’t just young/inexperienced/light etc, they were shit, really shit. One year wont change that

Reilly only just did the leaving

Has a great cut about him looks to take on his man and drive forward at every chance.

It looks like that but over the last 15 or so years they have produced some of the greatest players of all time .

Have they being doing anything different over the last few years ? To be honest where a club / county has a real great it can be pot luck .
