I agree. They need to be taking a closer look at star no2 Hogan as well, and his '50 ways to buy a free' routine.

Great second half from clare to win it. Kilkenny forwards didn't play the second half well ,never really pressured the clare half back line when in possession and it allowed clare push up and they dominated play. Kilkenny forward scored 2_4 from play the rest from frees ,65 and lineball from tj add in a few points t from defenders ,not a good enough return to win any game

Replying To Gaaforlife2023:  "Agree on support however Galway couldn't say much look how far their off the mark agree with support comment"
It's wasn't a slight on the last time they won the All Ireland, my point was I thought their support would have a bit more hunger considering the "drought" (for Kilkenny standards).

Replying To katser:  "If Clare had played as good in the 1st half as they did in the 2nd half they would have hammered Kilkenny!
Clare completely a better team than Kilkenny.....Two soft goals just to make it competitive but in reality Clare are far superior even with TK not playing brilliant"
Kilkenny should have had the game wrapped up at half time.

Two serious goal chances that should have been buried.

They left Clare back into the game and Clare took
Advantage of that in the second half.

Clare looked dead at the break, but they improved in the second half, and finished the better team, despite conceding a soft goal. If Clare had taken their scoring chances they would have been further ahead. TJ missed a few late frees, he would have converted in other games. I wonder will he be back in 2025.

You seem to overlook that they got two soft goals and only scored Eighteen times to Clares 24

Never mind, Karma. Kilkenny fellows have been 'buying' dubious frees with decades.

In the 1st half Clare made an average KK look good by playing so badly but in the 2nd half Clare proved they are a better team and to be honest Clare still had another gear or two in them.....the longer the game went on the more KK would have being beaten

Replying To Claretandblue:  "Don't take responsibility for your actions and it will be another 28 years before Liam makes its way down Slaneyside. Rory was on a yellow, made a very bad tackle which was borderline straight red and deservedly sent off. You keep denying that ye got fair play and see what good results"
Jimmy Cooney was from a neutral Province and Ye were not very happy with him.

If the free count was one sided it's because Kilkenny fouled more. It's not that difficult to understand

Thankfully Clare got it done today. The thought of a 3rd final in a row of Limerick inevitably having too much for Kilkenny would have been very unappealing. Saying that let's hope cork can finish off the semi final double tomorrow! But regardless of who wins, a tantalising final is in store.

The attendance of 39k is really pitiful for an All Ireland semi final. It would be really interesting to get numbers on each county's representation. I'm guessing 10k Kilkenny, 25k Clare and 5k neutral?

Also delighted for Adam Hogan. Eoin Cody was getting in his face and patting him on the helmet after the goal and then flattening him once play had stopped on another instance. He had the last laugh today.

Quilligan answered some of his critics today. Who would be a goalie? Undoubtedly the one position where if you make an error it's going to cost your team. Fair play to him he did well and it helped clare stay in game up to ht ,5 point lead is nothing in a hurling game.
Mullen for KK who is a great scorer didn't look anywhere near his usual form and Lyng afterwards said he had been injured.
Tomorrow's game has all the makings of a classic. Cork coming looking to beat limerick and get a shot at all ireland glory again.
Our lads will be motivated and know nothing short of their best will do to win against cork.
Nervous but looking forward to it,these are the days we as Limerick supporters could only have dreamed of .
