The Hurling Thread

Not sure. Thought of him last week and was wondering that too. When he was a minor he looked like the next big thing coming up for KK

Top scorer and main forward for their u20 winning team in 2022. I always thought he'd be a good senior forward.

Kilkenny are very poor v Galway

Team sheets for that final. Limerick have done far better out of it so far. Really bizarre.

Jeez. KK are brutal
So far it's been the most abject performance I can recall seeing from them.
Rare to see them outworked and outfought.

Galway look to be making good progress this year. They might be a bit off an all Ireland yet but they are heading in the right direction

Could be a lot lot nearer than ourselves.

Galway have definitely moved up the pecking order of All Ireland contenders. As good a chance as any team in Leinster. This is an exceptional performance.

That was poor from Kilkenny, no way they're as bad as that. Even with improvement it's hard to see them being all Ireland contenders this year.

When I saw the teams i didn't expect a kilkenny win, but couldn't forsee that beating at all. Only for Kenny wed have struggled to get to double figures.
Galway building a nice squad . Loads of quality hurlers in Galway , be interesting seeing them develop over the next few years

Good win from linerick point of view , cork started very well and showed what they could do with good ball to forwards. Our half forwards and mid tightened up and the supply wasn't as good which helped us grow into it. Delighted to see SOB and AOC delivering good scores from play. SOB is a big man similar to B hayes and both with ball in hand can cause real damage.
From Limerick pov great to see gillane still has the drive in him , his battle with SOD was great , tell truth its hard to know sometimes who's fouling who but an in form gillane is a handful for sure. TOC had a great game for cork some sweetly struck points.
Overall cork were definitely experimenting more in personnel but as with any game you can only beat what's in front of you .
Few contentious cards , the helmet pull can't remember who and Hayes pull on another day could both have been red but prob better for game they got ycs .
Plenty work ons for limerick but I like our setup and teamwork so far this year.
