Cork Hurlers - Part 2

[archrebel]

It seems that everyone including myself agree that Limerick have regressed slightly, but if they can't comfortably beat Waterford at home in a make or break encounter then it will be much more than slight regression. Surely Limerick will win this comfortably.

Time up. Limerick 3-24 WD 2-27.
LK have a 35m free to win the match. Score it and Cork are through in 3rd place and probably meet LK in an All Ire SF. Miss it and Cork are out with WD taking 3rd.
Gillane looks to the line for instruction from Kiely.
What's the signal from Kiely?

Easy, Kiely mouths into the nearest camera "Fcuk Cork" Gillane fires the ball over the Mackey stand.
Ref blows full time whistle. Limerick erupts, Waterford erupts. Dessie Hutchinson and Jamie Barron carry John Kiely shoulder high off the field. Kyle Hayes and Gearoid Hegarty do likewise with Davy Fitz.
JP holds a victory banquet in the Adare Manor that night. The Clare players are there too. A decision is made not to bother playing this years Munster final as the important job of knocking Cork out is done. It's an incredible display of brotherhood between the 3 counties.
People loving people. It's powerful stuff.

Limerick by at least 5. Byrnes Hannon and a few more out to redeem their reputations after being roasted in the Pairc. Waterford will try to provoke a reaction from Hayes but he seems well ready for it

I would think the same, barring a sending off or something like that.

Having lost his concentration Gillane drives the ball against the crossbar and hits it so sweetly the ball travels the length of the pitch and sails over Nicky Quaids head and waterford win by a point

Stupid question, you’d swear limerick are lying awake at night conjuring up ways to knock Cork out

That’s not how elite hurlers think

It's a harmless question. No one says players are lying awake thinking about it. Bed is for much better activity.

It's a question that the best Cork hurler I ever saw asked in our company yesterday. His main issue was how having a group of 5 can lead to conspiracy theories. Leinster having 6 counties taking part eliminates that.

And how did he answer?

Given that I’ve picked Waterford to win what would actually happen is it hits the crossbar, travels the length of the pitch and hits the top of be post above Quaid and flies back on the pitch into the net. Game over. Davy runs onto the field and starts a fight with the referee. -1000 points from R&B.

That's a very small group. I assume it's either JBM or BC.

Bring Kerry in to Munster and promote Joe McDonagh winners in Leinster. Have 2 groups of 6 and no team idle.

Kerry will get battered.
