This thread is for Limerick and Galway game. Why are you harping on about how good Dublin are and having a sneaky little pop at Galway. Best til last? The muck is being left til last. Fairplay Limerick, enjoy the week. Dec82 (Clare) - Posts: 242 - 19/08/2018 19:17:48 2134484 Link 12 |

Congrats to our great neighbours in Limreick. It would have been an all time injustice had Galway pinged one to the net on that last attack. ZUL10 (Clare) - Posts: 693 - 19/08/2018 19:36:32 2134489 Link 0 |
You saw Christy Ring play in his prime? What age are you?

Limerick absolutely deserved the win but ref got stoppage time correct. 8 mins added plus the stoppages during those 8 mins

Congratulations Limerick. It's wonderful to see Liam going to a county who haven't won it for 45 years; (like last year when Galway won it after a 29 years). They played great hurling throughout. On personal level, I backed Limerick to win the AI at 11/1 before the Championship started, and though I lose more bets then I win, it was good to see this one come in.

Brilliant final and super tension at the end. Well done to Limerick. Better team by far on the day in my opinion, and brought great hunger and intensity to the game. Fair play to Galway for not giving up and fighting to the end - but Limerick fully deserved to be All Ireland Champions. This game had everything. Enjoy the celebrations.

He didn't say he 'saw him in his prime'.

Wrong, the ref was 100% correct to play well over a minute beyond the additional 8 minutes there were plenty of stoppages within these 8 minutes too many refs blow as soon as the added time is up. Delighted it didn't matter though fair play to limerick well deserved what a summer of hurling!

When Canning netted that free (what an incredible strike by the way) was anyone else thinking Johny Dooley and 1994 all over again? It certainly crossed my mind. I usually shout for Galway but I'm glad Limerick won because to lose in those circumstances again would have been too much for any county to bear. ballydalane (Kilkenny) - Posts: 1246 - 19/08/2018 21:23:53 2134535 Link 0 |
Your lack of class on a thread that has got precisely zero to do with either Dublin or football is hard to forget too. Such self serving rubbish. This is Limerick's day and how they deserve it. Congratulations Limerick, brilliant performance. Enjoy everything tonight, this week and this year brings. Great stuff.

Not one of his better posts alright.... Has to be one of the best ever Hurling Championship this year. Wonderful entertainment. Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3738 - 19/08/2018 21:49:21 2134552 Link 1 |
Old enough to have watched 1956 All Ireland. Christy Ring and Nicky Rackard starred that day. The game is a lot faster and more skillful now. Canning to me, is the complete hurler...a ball winner, scoregetter, unbelievable strength and has never delivered a foul stroke. Great game today, Limerick deserved the win.

Fair play. Great to have seen so many great hurlers and hope you're in good health.

It has been a fantastic hurling championship a few tweaks and it will be epic summers every year. Over the match Limerick were the better team Galway almost made an incredible comeback. The game itself was poor first half, better second and unbelievable last ten minutes I have ever witnessed in sport. Nothing can top that. arock (Dublin) - Posts: 4898 - 19/08/2018 22:01:36 2134557 Link 0 |
Great finish to the match, I'm far from an expert on hurling but I thought the ref was very good to Galway in the closing stages, I thought Limerick had won a free in, not given and Galway go straight up the other end and get their first goal, Tirchonaill1 (Donegal) - Posts: 2757 - 19/08/2018 22:09:36 2134560 Link 0 |
