Replying To Loughlenegale: "On paper, it looks encouraging. Shane Keegan (if its who i think you mean) brings extensive coaching experience from across different sports, while Seamus Flanagan's understanding of elite-level forward play would be a huge asset. That said, if there is a rift between KOB and senior players, even the best coaching appointments may not be enough on their own. Ultimately, success will depend on everyone pulling in the same direction." Despite many including myself on this forum looking for kevin o brien to become manager the rift as you say seems extensive and also a rift brewing with conaty in u20 as they've taken a coach that he had originally brought in from what i hear in collinstown.

Replying To jobber: "Exactly but its clearly a start. If David O Reilly has the opportunity to work with Flanagan he might think again about risking his shoulder with the footballers. Niall O Brien and others would surely love the chance to buy into some of the Limerick ideas. Keegan was with Wexford hurlers and some soccer clubs. Id say lads will look diffeently at the county if these two are confirmed." Wexford hurlers at their lowest ebb in the county's illustrious history. Hope he has more success with our hurlers.

I heard they were sharing him which would make sense from a tactical point of view. The manager and his team and indeed the 20s management need to hit the ground running.
