Replying To Barnowl94: "I disagree .Tipp will not want to give Limerick the morale booster of a win over the form team in the country in Thurles . Sheedy will go for the win all out is my prediction. Should be good." Especially now with a 'weakened' limerick side blackspot91 (Limerick) - Posts: 1055 - 15/06/2019 03:23:48 2195139 Link
Replying To blackspot91: "Especially now with a 'weakened' limerick side" It might be a "weakened" Limerick team but I don't see any weak links in their line-out. That goes to show what a strong panel they have - surely the best squad in the country. midlands (Westmeath) - Posts: 541 - 15/06/2019 09:16:34 2195156 Link
Replying To blackspot91: "Especially now with a 'weakened' limerick side" Dowling for Hegarty despite how good he has been this year probably makes you stronger in the sense that dowling is your best free taker. Gillane has been better again this year but not near the free taker that dowling is. Hannon and Lynch tho are probably your two most influential players. I think tipp will regret not doing similar. We have a strong forward panel but we could have blooded a few in this game. Big mistake not to. tiobraid (Tipperary) - Posts: 4119 - 15/06/2019 16:28:39 2195293 Link

Replying To Rockies: "I am expecting a big game from Clare on Sunday in Ennis.They are hurting and will be anxious to turnover Cork. Clare were unlucky against Galway in semi final last year, and could easily have won All Ireland. Cork need to be at their best. Not sure how Tipp will approach Limerick game." I am also expecting a big game from Clare on Sunday. But they could have "easily won the All Ireland" is absolutely ridiculous, make no mistake the best team of 2018 won the All Ireland and was'nt it Cork they beat in the semi final. aloneitstands (Limerick) - Posts: 64 - 15/06/2019 23:20:16 2195573 Link
Replying To munsterchamps: "i think it was a huge mistake by sheedy not blooding some of the younger players on the panel ......he might think they are going well in training matches but nothing compares to the white heat of muster championship." 100% agree. A lot of miles on the clock of at least half the team. Our only chance reallyto blood a few players. All very well to say you want to stay winning but it's a mistake in my opinion. He has taken off the younger players too in the games we've won tiobraid (Tipperary) - Posts: 4119 - 16/06/2019 00:07:03 2195583 Link
Poor enough fare after half an hour, both sides going through the motions. Has the feel of a league match so far, some good play at times but a lot of poor touches and loose play. Hopefully it improves 2nd half. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13704 - 16/06/2019 14:32:35 2195750 Link
Best wishes to Bonnar Maher. Hope he makes as quick a recovery as possible. Great wholehearted player. BliainanÁir (Laois) - Posts: 598 - 16/06/2019 14:41:46 2195753 Link

Limerick could lose 3 games and still win the all Ireland, game never got going and the final could be the same hopefully not. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 16/06/2019 15:48:09 2195786 Link

No injuries for Limerick and rested key players. Into the final. Smart play. Will the final be in Limerick or PUC? Jack_Goff (Meath) - Posts: 2920 - 16/06/2019 15:55:54 2195794 Link
Handy win as expected for Tipp ....they will win the Munster Final by more. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2192 - 16/06/2019 16:00:55 2195798 Link
Disgraceful stuff by Limerick today, they have made an enemy out of Tipp and Clare and thrown Cork a lifeline at the same time. Killarney.87 (Tipperary) - Posts: 2513 - 16/06/2019 16:01:10 2195799 Link
Replying To clondalkindub: "Limerick could lose 3 games and still win the all Ireland, game never got going and the final could be the same hopefully not." The final shouldn't be the same. A Munster final in the Gaelic Grounds is a big deal.I dont think it will be a tame affair..i hope not. Limerick half backs without Hannon were rudderless. Some of the Tipp shooting was great and some wasnt. Limerick forwards were poor enough..Gillane and Morrissey were good. The ref was poor...laughing and joking with Paudie Maher...not very professional. Have him a few soft frees aswell. bloodyban (Limerick) - Posts: 1710 - 16/06/2019 16:20:13 2195810 Link
Terrible lack of intensity. Suppose it was kind of a dead rubber. Would expect it to be very different in 2 weeks. Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 11714 - 16/06/2019 16:25:37 2195813 Link

Replying To Killarney.87: "Disgraceful stuff by Limerick today, they have made an enemy out of Tipp and Clare and thrown Cork a lifeline at the same time." What's your point? By resting our injured captain, some key players and running out of steam on our third match in a row limerick were working off some dark pro Cork, anti-Clare/Tipp agenda?? Seriously? skillet (Limerick) - Posts: 1056 - 16/06/2019 16:46:25 2195826 Link
