No, he was finished and hasnāt stood out for his club since.

Dunno why Shane and Kieran Bennett werenāt given hardly any game time all year, Iām baffled by it

Was just looking through the tables over the years there and despite the round robin coinciding with a glorious era for Limerick hurling, we have never actually topped the round robin table. Clare finish a nose ahead of us this year on scoring difference.
I was thinking there was a falling out or something which might also explain the subsequent capitulation

Seems that something has gone wrong but I havenāt heard, Iām sure itāll come out over the coming weeks/months if it has
I dont think Cahill ever forgave Shane for not committing in 2020.
For all the talk about Shane Bennett he has done nothing in any of the games he has been introduced in.

Mullane said something on the radio today about the team being leaked before Cahill even told the squad what it was
Ennis was always a fortress, very hard place to go to get a result
Rumours of a dust up last night between two members of the original team who were axed on the day.

Whatever that was about
Its like looking in the mirror from a Limerick perspective before they got their shit together. I fear ye have possibly lost another generation of potential given the demands of the current game

Yeah? Surprised with that
Debatable.
Galway in 2ā17 & Limerick in 2ā21 arenāt really comparable either.
Galway were the prototype Burly team that could overpower opponents. ( think tipperary in League Final )
Limerick are a hardened Burly team but with far superior hurling ( hurlers ). In full flow only KK in 08/09 compare really as a dominant team.
Iād agree ( easy say that beaten you say ).
Munster championship should be knockout hurling. Losers progress to Qualifier round back into All Ireland Semiāsā¦
Open draw qualifiers bring supporters on a few tours and spreads the gospel etcā¦
At the moment Munster is the 5 Counties baiting shite of each other 5 times to win a Munster Title? Shortening a season they say?

I donāt believe there was any agro as such in the Waterford camp up until possibly this last week. The team were jaded all year. They were still in a position going in against Cork last week where they advanced if they won. It was done when they lost to Cork. Cork werenāt going to slip up to one of the worst Tipperary teams of all time. Cahillās very public bashing of the team, distancing and washing his hands on everything that had gone wrong is the very thing that loses dressing rooms.
Waterford investing so much effort in the league as well is a bit of a myth. They drew with Dublin, lost to Kilkenny, scrapped past Antrim by 2 points and just about fell into a league semi final ahead of Dublin on scoring difference. Waterford might have hammered Wexford in the semi final but that a lot more to do with Wexford ineptness/disinterest than any brilliance or big effort from Waterford.
Cahill threw them under a bus last year as well when they lost tamely enough to Clare in Munster quarter final. It was early enough in the season and the players were fresh enough to react.
