The great PJ McManus

[maroonandwhite]

A nice effort but a grasp. They key element is it was the games governing body that decided to treat one team differently. That’s rotten to the core. Anyways back to the topic at hand, talk about ill gotten gains surely has no place in a thread about JP McManus

You were never the brightest and in fairness you’ve maintained a certain level of consistency

And vice versa

What limerick are doing off their own steam in a far better and more complicated game than big ball

Football is a far more complicated game than hurling

[neilld]

Twas managers needed in Waterford, sweet hurlers like Ozzy and TDB, and the team running ‘off the shoulder’ from one end of the field to the other.

The two lads were as good as anything Limerick had and were ran into the ground.

So you’re saying The county with by far the biggest population got the most funding to grow the game ?

[maroonandwhite]

I’m not sure how you come to that conclusion. And by complicated there I meant in terms of execution, skill wise. Where there’s no comparison.

[maroonandwhite]

I’ve spelled this out for you multiple times. Have a look at renowned journalist Ewan McKennas work exposing the doping. When you are in possession of the facts come back. On a different thread.

Hurling is a simple enough game played seriously by about quarter of the island. Even simpler nowadays because you can just throw the ball to another player if you’re under any pressure

No wonder tipp is in the doldrums.

Didn’t mean to be cheeky there if it came over that way, but I’d say if you gave Derek and even Cahill another million, they wouldn’t do much different.

There must be an alternate universe where there was no sweeper, halfback line was something like…

Ozzy, TDB, Mahony

3 elite hurlers who can all ping 100 meters accurately, and they ran everything. It was crazy.

@LionelRitchie

There’s also been a Limerick physio, deccie lynch, involved with the academy and senior squad. Tipp fella there too.

The links arent so tenuous as to be unapproachable

And jerry Flannery

[cowpat]

and far shittier.

Seamus Flanagan went from barely getting a run in 2017 for the 21’s to starting for the seniors the following year. Talk about finding a diamond in the rough. There wasn’t even a clamour for his inclusion from lads within his own club and he has proved so important since.

Kiely plucked for Hegarty at wing back for the 21’s in 2015 too, another kind of left field call that worked out spectacularly well.

Kiely doesn’t get the credit he deserves. Between the genius Kinnerck, the moneyman JP, the generational hurlers, the Arsenal structures, etc etc sometimes it feels like he’s bottom of the list in terms of contribution.
He’s no 1 for me, brought the team together(and keeps them motivated despite all the off the field stuff) gets all the big calls right an outstanding leader of men. Like Cody only not a cunt

[fenwaypark]

To be fair, @BruidheanChaorthainn was champion Flanagan very early doors.

[caulifloweredneanderthal]

@Lazarus

Like Cody only not a cunt

[maroonandwhite]

But kiely didn’t bring the team together. He was hired after kinnerk and after the structures were in place. Now he’s obviously a very likeable guy and a good people person and some of his one eyed comments the media no doubt endear him to the players. He does his role very well. I don’t think he single handedly turned limerick around as you suggest.

Well the way some lads big up their jobs you may as well !
