His scoring rate was bigger in championship than in the league. It just highlights his consistency over that period

Richie McCarthy is no fucking figure of comedy. He’s an all star and a great bit of stuff

Country wide he is regarded as a figure of comedy. Opposition fans used to laugh at him and he absolutely cleaned Callanan inside out at Callanans peak it should be added too.

Callanan was and is a rolls Royce of a hurler.
Shane dooley was brilliant also

In fairness to Daithi he stops everything. Sure he even held the next GOAT to two points while on one leg.

Galway and tipp lads have obsessions with using injuries as excuses as to why they bottle it on a frequent basis. Its no wonder why they always lose to kk. Mentally weak. I’m not sure who the next goat is.

Do you regard Richie as a figure of comedy? Do you rate him as a hurler?

He was a good hurler. Nothing more.

Agreed. Rarely has anyone ever been as lethal as him between 2014-16. Similar with Lar between 2009 and 2011

You have to be good at something to bottle it. I have never seen Callanan score a penalty, he just can’t get enough power behind them

Poor Hego.

In Callanan’s peak they marked each other twice and Callanan destroyed him one of those times, and he got 2 points from play the other time

Classic tfk.

Lad adopts a position.

Facts and stats are mortar bombed down on him.

Lad adds sandbags and digs in deeper

He was destroyed in 2013 and 2014 After that limerick were crap and a total irrelevance. Callanan is a bottler and cost his side all Ireland’s in 09, 14 and 15. Great players take charge in the final ten minutes of the big games. Callanan disappears.

Between Munster and united, @anon32894817 is having a mare of a week, this sort of stance is to be expected tbf.

2013 wasn’t his peak. You must rate him really highly if he scored 2 points from play in a game you think he was destroyed in

So his peak was 2014 to 2017 when he was regularly cleaned by Burke, kJ and Richie mc. Cost tipp the Ireland in both 14 and 15. In 2017 when he was needed versus Galway he was held scoreless in the final 20 minutes. Disappearing again when needed. Great players don’t vanish when there team needs them. Callanan always disappears.

He is destroying everyone that goes near him. As you would say yourself, gas cunts. Why anyone even entertains his thoughts as actual opinion warranting discussion is beyond me.
