The Hurling Thread

interesting team. Certainly giving the likes of Byrnes Nash gillane and reidy in particular a chance to get lots of game time.
I do think Coughlan and Fitzgerald are far closer to championship team than some think. I agree I’d like to see more of fitz.
Can’t see us starting any championship match without Dan at 3 or 6.

Like any league game it’s the individual performances that matter. Who’s sharper? Who needs more minutes to get there?
Who’s over the hill and needs to be bypassed. Limerick got caught cold by a very weather and injury interrupted league last season. Clare lost their season in the league last year. Got it all wrong.
Winning or losing sat has limited value if let’s say both meet in croker down the line. Both well capable of doing an absolute number of a team. Both vulnerable too in certain ways defensively.


Very little between both cork and Limerick (and Clare and tipp won’t be far off at all !!) I would agree that limericks game v Dublin is just as puzzling and annoying as the cork final performance. I’d have been confident had we gotten to the big day we’d have been hard to beat.
Tipp must be thrilled to be written off so early in the year.!

I think that Dan Morrissey might be the only change to that team if Limerick were playing championship this weekend. I am not sure about Fitzgerald but when the ground gets hard and hurling gets fast I think Coughlan struggles.

I think Limerick are a big threat this year to every county. They are an aging team and will not want to go three years without winning the All Ireland before retirements.

DOD and Peter Casey injured?
 
Tipp have more of a settled look tomorrow. Ronan maher, Robert Doyle and forde starting. Darragh Mccarthys brother getting a go too.
Be worrying for them if they can't beat waterford
