course it is ffs
As strong a Limerick panel named as I can remember. The build up begins in earnest!
Choco with the exclusive revelation that Kearney and Cooper will work back and condense space for the Limerick attack.

Another TFK exclusive.
It won’t make a difference as to counteract it Limerick have more options than Cork if we have to go direct.
I believe Cooper is going to focus on hooking blocking and breaking up the play as well
Leave the analysis to lads that have actually been to Cork games this year – I’m disappointed with @Bandage here - he’s obviously had a few pints.
Dont tell anyone pal but I believe Fitzgibbon is going to try and get forward and tack on a few scores

I had 1 (one) pint.
Teams are in and no surprises on either.
Personnel-wise there’s hardly anything between them. We know how both will hurl but I suspect that Cork will tailor their game plan slightly to match the Limerick model. Kearney will drop back around midfield and I think they’ll only play two inside - Harnedy and Horgan.
They’ll come laterally across the pitch to create the free man for shooting chances and they’ll fire for the posts a lot. I don’t see them carrying a whole lot of ball into contact.
We know what Limerick will do and, for once, I think Croke Park suits us. Cork may have more experience there in recent times but that experience brings a pressure of its own. They’ll be expected to deliver this time.
Winning the midfield battle will be key - there’ll be carnage around here for large parts of the game.
The other factor is the bench and I feel that Limerick are stronger here.
70K crowd, green & white, blood & bandage. It has the makings of a great day.
Limerick’s subs to edge it.

It obviously did some damage you stupid fucker — I ran that ‘exclusive’ 2 days ago from my same ‘source’ — I hope idiocy isnt hereditary.
What are you railing about? You’re going on as if they’re doing something different or about to showcase a new game plan. They’re not. Cooper, Kearney, Meade forage back. They win the ball back, or help the defense to do so. They’ve left space for quick ball to be delivered into Horgan, Harnedy, Kingston and Lehane. You dozy bollox.
You stupid fucker… you’re sleep depraved.
Good night, Bandage.
I don’t think that he was yards off the pace at all against Clare, I actually thought he was hurling well before the red card
Tom Condon?
Didn’t Condon win the only two or three balls that came his way against Clare after coming on before he got the red card? As far as I recall anyway
