Munster Senior Hurling Championship 2024

Some money made in the marina yesterday.

Anyone selling normal food had a massive queue, while the likes of the sushi place had no one. You wanted to be selling ice cream, burgers, pizza or the acceptable Asian food Chinese.

The Gah crowd weren’t having Japanese or Korean or even Kebabs.

If you had your wits about you on say the Japanese stall, you’d fuck away your chopsticks for the day and sell Carvery and make a solid fortune.

That park by the Pairc looks like it will be a fine job.

Fuck sake, just when you thought Kinnerk couldn’t bring more from football, he has them kicking it out now as well.

Limerick were destroyed on long puck outs and Cork shouldn’t bother with short ones. That’s interesting

75% on own puckouts won is insane. Cleaned us out

We couldn’t handle their long puckout in the first half at all, and we got two goals off their short puckout.

Time for Galway to activate Johnny Glynn

Dismantled.

They did something similar to us in 19.

@Little_Lord_Fauntleroy has a point about the scoring. Nearly one a minute. Impressive from the forwards but it would nearly make you yearn for the hacking and twenty yard mishits of yore.

A fella hit a ground stroke yesterday.

Life finds a way

With the first half breeze they won 6 of 8 puckouts inside the 45. I’d say they scored every time including they key response goal.

They went long on Byrne’s wing from play also and seemed to target having a player run in behind for the ball to run through. Did not bother going down the other wing from puckout or play but did catch Nash behind his man a number of times when able to play it from midfield.

You’re wasting your time going at Hayes.

No coverage from an overworked Donohue means the other two lads have to fend for themselves and struggle

We had a Christian brother from Kilkenny in National School. He orgainsed a 1st to 3rd class league and there was one rule. No rising it. Ground hurrrling.

Donovan return is the key.

And a look at defensive work from 10 and 12

Tom did alright attacking but the hard yards don’t look to be there this year from him.

DOD is a massive loss.

Time for Hannon and Nash to go back to the Forwards and Tom and CON back to defense.

DOD’s distribution worth 3/4 points a game
Hope we beat Waterford and get him back for Munster final.

The amount of ground he covers is phenomenal.

He did.

When Limerick hit the front and he won a free which was converted he engaged in serious verbals with a Cork player. He was definitely releasing the valve in the thinking they were home & hosed.

In reality his rash drag down cost his team and it still seems that he can be wound up easily.

In fairness, we don’t know what’s being said to him on the field but he needs to be ignoring it now at this stage.

As regards, the ref being hard on Limerick? I think you are being biased in the extreme.
Stack tried to let it flow and blew when he had to.

Limerick hit Cork equally as hard as Cork hit them.

The pull down was really stupid. Put the game in Stacks hands… And Stack was fine over all , there were just three or four pieces of real dirt he let go first half, but whatever. The Corks deserved the win.

The reality is that Kingston should have been dragged down before he got to the 20. It was very naive from Limerick

Quit whinging.

Limerick well able to hit & be dirty too.

Whilst Collins acted the fanny ala Quaid time wasting, he was hit by Gillanes Hurley. It was a stupid swipe and he is consistently loose with his hurl. At some stage he’ll swipe & see red.
