Munster Senior Hurling Championship 2026

Clare will be a very dangerous animal yet. The pressure on Cork when they get back to Croke Park will be insane and it wouldn’t be ideal to be running into a written off bunch of dual All Ireland winners like Kelly, O’Donnell, Conlon and co.

Better off facing a team who hasn’t done it before.

Don’t take it too harshly pal ye will be waiting in the long grass.

Oh my my my
Oh my my my
Oh my my my my
June

And a wet and windy Sunday lunchtime in June at that.

I don’t think so, the legs are gone but the Limericks are finding it tough adjusting to being mortal again.

Like you when you pony up for a brazzer and they ask it is it really worth it?

The Dublin footballers tried to book him for the Leinster football final but they got it backwards.

We couldn’t win a championship game for a year, Just happy to compete God forbid we go close to 3 decades without a provincial title then I’d be hurt.

You said it there. Clare have top class all time players and quality throughout the team. They have to quality to beat anyone on their day. It’s why it was funny when the tipp lads thought they were more of the threat than clare. Tipp have nothing like the quality of players Clare have.

Oh right, that’s like a surgeons incision. How will I ever recover.

The two Cork wing forwards will swing this, the lads with 40 inch hurleys will struggle on them.

Recover from what? You’re all over the place yet again the drink is a nawful curse all the same.

From your attempted barb about Clare not winning a Munster championship since 1998.

If I was on the beer you would know about it.

Presuming limerick start the same team as the last day they should beating this cork team by five to eight points. Cork will improve again so if we can’t beat this outfit with a bit to spare we may as well throw our hat it.

Yerrah if Limerick win - then Cork dind’t want to win and if Cork win - Limerick are gone past it. At least we are there to take part in our 8th (eight) final in a row while the Tippos start sneaking back in behind the sofas for a few years.

I agree Clare have better players than Tipp right now, but all bets are off when a Tipp team heads up the M7. We can go from being a shambles to unbeatable in the blink of an eye as we saw last year and in 2019.

Clare need to look at this All Ireland as a 6 week blitz now and see that its very winnable.

Cork remain the best team in the land, but they’ve been that way for 2 years.

Limerick look much better than the shambles they were last year but still have a lot to prove as any team that loses to 14 man Dublin tends to have.

You could have a bit of respect for the observers that nail their colours to the mast rather than talking out both sides of their mouth. Obviously there’s no way cork aren’t all out to win but they’re down two top class players and that has an impact. Advantage limerick but it’ll be back to evens for the next meeting.

Says the fella from a county that haven’t done a back to back in 60 years and got humiliated inside less than 2 weeks ago, you couldn’t make it up really.

I don’t think ye can beat a good team in croke park to honest with you, it’s been a long time since ye have. There’s little glory in somehow being last man standing when teams implode for whatever reason but I suppose they all count for the history books.

Cork probably don’t win that round robin game if Lynch stays on the field.

Fitzgibbon has to be worth 3-5 points.

Damien Cahalane is due a cleaning.

Limerick have a 15-1 record in finals with the 1 being a penalty shootout.

On the plus for cork the game is being played on Astro turf where they have an unbelievable record but I still don’t think it’s enough. Limerick win this pulling up imo.

Forecast for cork on Sunday is rain so that adds a lot of intangibles. Not sure does it favour anyone but likes of buckley, walsh and healy would rather a dry day anyway
