@Esso_Oil

Sort out a set of decent defenders and then ye are sorted. Only problem is this is the same problem Cork have had for the last 10 years and it hasn’t been sorted

I think we are close tbh. Two good corner backs. An improving full back and one potentially top class half back.

We’ll do em this time.

Another brave moral victory!

Having good players and defending as a team aint the same

First I’ve seen mention of it. GAA website makes no mention of it. We play losers of Joe McDonagh alright.

Can’t see it tbh. Makes no sense

[PhattPike]

Not sure there is home advantage for quarter finals. I’ve seen it explicitly stated for the preliminary round vs the Joe McDonagh teams alright, but not the quarters.

[anon61956325]

Why would the same logic not be applied for the next round also?

[Watchyourtoes]

Indeed this home AI QF for provimcial loser is big news to me,was always a double header in Thurles or maybe the Pairc this year?

Think it’s like the guaranteed home qualifier for the lower seed team in the football qualifiers.

[PhattPike]

…And to the next round (semi-finals) as well?

[iron_mike]

You would imagine that the munster finame would have to be in Cork using that logic

[Peejaymc]

Don’t think that the provincial runners up get home advantage for quarter final. The two Joe mcdonagh teams do alright for the next round. The quarter finals will be a double header, probably in thurles or Cork

[iron_mike]

Semis are all fixed for Croker. No I’d say we’ll all be going to Cork or Thurles

[PhattPike]

You’d probably have to have D’All Ireland down there altogether.

[Watchyourtoes]

Exactly what I was thinking,that’s too big a carrot to go unnoticed all along!

[Peejaymc]

Don’t post on this site much, so don’t know the history but some guys here seem to be very bitter towards Limerick, mad to stick the knife into us today after a poor performance

[anon61956325]

That’s run of the mill… I wouldnt let it get to you, mate.

[anon32894817]

Davy Fitz very nearly destroyed a great clare team.

Limerick lost by 11 points and to a much better team - there’s not much you can say to that except a few home truths. Limerick have a lot to learn.

Can Limerick bounce back from that hammering? Tipperary still haven’t recovered from the hammering they got to Galway in last years league final.
