good job Alan,fairly mundane type game really ,limerick never had to change gear and deserved the win,agree on the style very direct,kilkenny might have got more out of it had they availed of a few gilt edged chances and they lacked a couple of real quality players imo.
Very direct indeed.
At one point in the second half, poor old Craig Madigan dropped off to collect the ball from his defence, only to be chastised for not getting up there for the second ball. Probably depressing for a footballer like him, but it's a measure of how good he is that he was still one of the game's most effective players while employing a style that's probably completely anathema to him.
Still, as you say, Kilkenny were very poor. Such was the gulf in quality, that the footballing philosophy didn't matter one bit really. Limerick likely would have won regardless of what they were trying to do.
It's when you don't have players that are that much better than their opposition that decision-making from the sideline really matters. As observers of lower-league Limerick DL football this season will tell you.
Agree with most of above, I tought Limerick played the conditions better in what looked like a cabbage patch of a pitch. Some of the one touch play early in the game by Clarke, Tierney and Gorman was excellent. Good stuff Alan.
Sligo Leitrim 1-2 Clare
Wexford League now in semi-final after beating Kerry League 2-0 last weekend.
Aul or innisowen v clare,Wexford v Limerick semi draw
Interesting draw. Dublin AUL with a possible home semi final look to be big favourites.
Limerick beat Wexford 2-0 in the semi-final. Wexford had a player sent off early in the second half.
lads any one know why the final is on in Donegal, I thought all fai finals are played in dublin
Home advantage applies even in final..has been for years..
Any predictions for the final
Limerick hosted 2 finals in the last few years losing to AUL and Desmond League in Clouneask in Co Limerick.Inishown not sure if they hosted any.maybe someone will enlighten.Quote:
