Who would have thought that after 4 games in the Munster championship this year the home team has lost 3. Each team who had home advantage as their first game lost. Remarkable but really goes to show how unpredictable the Munster championship is. Plenty more twists and turns im sure. Limerick wont like going to Walsh Park having to get a result. That being said, its amazing how Waterfords form has plummeted since the league semi and in fairness I dont think their conditioning and fitness looks good. They are also very blunt in attack.

Question for Limerick supporters today - Would you rather have won yesterday or won the League? LarryOBrother (Wexford) - Posts: 409 - 20/05/2019 10:40:41 2185802 Link 2 |
Corks win makes it very interesting. If Waterford have any pride they will fight tooth and nail in Walsh Park against Limerick. That should be a very interesting game. Ban (Westmeath) - Posts: 1415 - 20/05/2019 10:58:49 2185813 Link 0 |
Tipp v Clare for me is the one that could put either in a Munster final going on form. WildPundit (Tipperary) - Posts: 1709 - 20/05/2019 11:21:24 2185833 Link 0 |
Think you could be waiting a fair while for a response Larry. Where are have all the Limerick lads gone?

Could just as easily be three teams on 2 points. And then we could end up with a scenario where a county who lost three games in their provincial championship goes on to win an all ireland

Discussing the match on the Limerick forum and not paying much attention to Wexford lads with nothing better to do.

I'm actually being genuine. A lot of posters scoffed when i said the League is worth F all and I'm interested to know now if the result yesterday would've changed their minds?

2 level - head to head. Anymore than 2 - score difference LohansRedHelmet (Clare) - Posts: 2490 - 20/05/2019 14:28:31 2185929 Link 0 |
OK..ill take that at face value. I was delighted when we won the league and I don't think it had any bearing on yesterdays result.. If it was going to have an impact that would be seen in July etc. (assuming we get that far) We last won the league in 1997, its one of only 3 titles available which we don't see too much of in Limerick hurling... So to answer your question, I'd rather have won the league than yesterdays match.. Ive seen limerick teams underachieving for years. To see my county as defending AI and league champions was and is amazing. skillet (Limerick) - Posts: 1065 - 20/05/2019 14:49:18 2185934 Link 0 |

Just in relation to the sending off, as you say the first yellow was harsh - which i agree with on the face of it. hurlingexpert (Clare) - Posts: 1941 - 20/05/2019 15:22:12 2185945 Link 1 |
I am a bit confused, LHR.Cork Tipperary and Waterford have each played 2 games. Clare and Limerick have played one game. Waterford have no points after 2 games, one home and one away. Limerick have lost one home game. Cork won away, and lost at home. Waterford v Limerick will be an important game for both teams, if Waterford lose, their season will be over. I think they will put up a huge battle. Clare v Tipperary in Ennis is a game both sides will want to win. Tipperary v Limerick will be a cracker. Cork are back in the mix, but they have to play Clare in Ennis, and Waterford at home. A lot of hurling to be played. thelongridge (Offaly) - Posts: 1746 - 20/05/2019 15:25:53 2185950 Link 0 |

I still think Limerick will qualify they have the strongest panel around they have a lot of similar Hurlers but bar 2 or 3 not many exceptional players such as TJ Reid S Callinan Patrick Horgan Bubbles ect and when they get to play to their system are fierce hard to break down. Few will admit it but they under estimated the Rebels who after all scored 1.24 playing badly Myler tweaked a few things a centre back yesterday that was not even in panel last week worked well. Tipperary now definate favourites for Munster & All Ireland Ireland titles Limerick always gives them bags off it though clooney (Clare) - Posts: 891 - 20/05/2019 16:43:20 2185975 Link 0 |

I'd rather get out of Leinster than win the league, honestly.

Larry, check out the number of counties who have retained the McCarthy Cup after winning it after a long lapse. Very few have and that includes counties like Cork, Kilkenny and Tipp. So if we dont get into the closing stages this year we will merely regroup and aim to talk the talk and walk the walk in the next few years as we so splendidly did last year, when we every team in the country that was worth beating. However, as was proved after the Clare game last year, write us off at your peril.
