Hard luck

[Joe_Player]

It will

[Gman]

Better off not having the pressure of a Munster final. Will be underdogs now, best way. There’ll be lads burning hapes of heather in training and will do wreck in the next game

@gilgamboa

I expect this will be the narrative by the time the Sunday game starts tonight i.e. this is the best thing that could have happened to them. Good lesson. Learn a lot from it. Better off through the qualifiers anyway than playing Clare again in munster final. Am I missing owt?

All Irelands aren’t won in Cusack Park Ennis
3 weeks in a row shite
Limerick need the Sun on their backs
Etc etc

What’s green and white and goes beep
Beep ??
A clue. There’s 52 seats on it

[Raylan]

He made a better fist of quietning Conlon than the three who started the match in fairness to him

[GeoffreyBoycott]

Any thoughts on a prospective starting Limerick XV to face Carlow or Westmeath? Are wholesale changes needed or was today just once of those bad days at the office that all sides can have?

[ciarancareyshurlingarmy]

Gillane in for Dow, or perhaps Mulcahy

[balbec]

I’d say Hayes or Hegarty could see bench.

[balbec]

Casey will surely get a run soon

[anon61956325]

Were you down that end where it happened? What was the umpire at sending him off?

[ciarancareyshurlingarmy]

Hayes wont but Hegartys lack of touch and feel for half forward position showed up today.

[Big_Dan_Campbell]

Delighted for the Clare management this evening. Three good wins and plenty of character shown on the pitch. Great chance to win Munster and we are on the right track.

@ciarancareyshurlingarmy

Gillane in for Dow,

Did the Dow get a run today?

@Big_Dan_Campbell

Routine enough win in the end. The much maligned Jack Browne and Pat O’ Connor excellent again today following up their strong showings last week.

Duggan and Conlon fairly bullied the Limerick backs at times while Podge dropping Condon with a thumping shoulder was a personal highlight.

Hope Diarmuid Byrnes makes a full recovery, looked like he took a very hard shoulder when he tried to blindside the smallest man on the pitch and ended up on his hole.

Duggan bullied Limerick, particularly Morrissey, in the league game and it seems we did not counter that.

[gilgamboa]

Said it here last week but Clare gave cork the biggest trouble of any game. Completely written off because ‘cork were useless’

[Big_Dan_Campbell]

Was just to the side of it, Byrnes tried to blindside him and Reidy dropped him with a perfectly timed shoulder.

Assume the umpire only saw it in the periphery and had his eye on the ball 70 yards out the field and assumed that given the size of the two lads involved that Reidy must have struck Byrnes for him to go down the way he did. Wasn’t even a booking let alone a red.

Thought Owens was pretty poor and missed a heap of obvious frees

[ciarancareyshurlingarmy]

Owens was very poor. Blew for nothing challenges in the first half and forgot to blow in the second half. Not to mention a red for Reidy
