There is more riding on the match next week for more teams, tonights match was between a team finishing no higher or lower than 5th and another team that couldn't finish any higher than last so it affected no other team whoever won tonight. It wouldn't be fair to the other teams if Limerick have played their hardest against them and then throw out a weak team in such an important match. Also a full bus of Limerick fans going up next Saturday and lots of people making their own way up or going over after the Ireland vs New Zealand match so i can't see mike throwing out a second string team for all the fans that are travelling up, it would not go down well. Also the Limerick players will want to test themselves one last time before the end of the season. Don't worry Holidaysong :D
