Munster SHC Final 2017 - Clare v Cork

I see after a lack of an immediate reaction to your fishing expedition you edited the post to tag people. You’ve really become a Cork man now with your desperate need for attention.

Stage 3.

Eoin Kelly was not “outstanding” at 19 years of age in 2001. He was a promising corner forward who got the vast majority of his scores from frees.

He was not one of Tipperary’s seven or eight most important players that year.

That he would go on to become a great player isn’t relevant to the point at hand.

You are at least a stage 3 mate, if not higher.

Coleman is in his 20th year. Kelly was one of Tipp’s main men by 2002

Editing the post to tag people, he really is starved for attention below in Cork while Princess is gone out working to put bread on the table for him.

Go easy on him. It was a long day in Thurles for him. Mind you he was probably a bit compromised as to who he would shout for. His adopted county or his native one.

thats an utterly outstanding post, i was happy to give it its 3rd like there, in fact i stopped half way thru to give it the like and then continued on reading the remainder of the post

The Limerick stooges rattled to fuck - @glasagusban rattling on about Podge being a saviour all week :rofl:

No, that was Wexford in 96 pal.

Coleman is the same age Kelly was in 2001, not 2002.

Not in GAA terms

The key thing for me in that Coleman wasn’t a minor last year . None of the young cork lads were .

I still think Lk were wrong to play Kyle Hayes this year , good and all as he was .

I am convinced the need for a gap yesr .

Wing back is also the easiest position to play in hurling by a mile

I can fully understand why you feel this way given your hiatus. It’s certainly the type of post that would have commanded a “nice post” back in February when your user privileges were suspended. But the mere 3rd like says it all really and @Brimmer_Bradley 's TFK stock has plummeted alarmingly since Buff Egan came on the scene.

Buff nicely covers the twee GAA angle wth his snaps and posters seem quite tired of Brimmer’s alternative offerings - the banal your mother / sister posts, the my Seamie would batter your Joe guff and the trying too hard “attacks” on the forum’s admired posters (e.g. yours truly). It seemed last night that posters preferred to debate the day’s hurling. I hope Brimmer can reinvent himself and make himself relevant again. Coldplay have done it.

Not applicable. Senior inter-county hurling doesn’t impose arbitrary upper age limits.

Maybe you’re right but then look at Shane O’Donnell. He scored a hat-trick in an All-Ireland final just out of minor and won an All-Ireland. He’ll probably never beat that in his career.

OK Noel McGrath in 2010 is probably the best example so

To be fair O Donnell was used very sparingly that year and had bother with injuries since(although that might have nothing to do with playing at that age)

I still think it is better if there is a gap year .

Rising above and putting lads back in their place at the same tims, you really have hit your stride in recent days.
