  1. Five valid points and well argued .I can't help thinking though that there was another key factor on Sunday which was barely mentioned anywhere. KK, I suspect, if they had it all over again would love to have won the toss and play against the wind first half like LK did.All that ferocious intensity would have been much better employed stopping LK from building up a big half time lead,given LK never looked like getting a goal, would we have seen such a purple patch from LK early on?.
    Second half, KK could have hit long range points themselves but even if they tired a bit they could always lump it long to Cody and expect to get goals.
    As a Limerick man, I'm very glad this scenario never got to play out, LK always find a way to win but it might well have been a lot closer.
    Never forget the influence of Diarmuid Byrnes either, we almost take it for granted now that he keeps the score board ticking over day in day out no matter what the occasion. And of course the rain held off which I think did us no harm.

  2. Kiely jumping up and down like a kid trying Ecstasy for first time. So you won an athletic competition because all your players are 6 inches taller than the opposition and handpass the ball around like Kerry in 70's garlic football. Get a grip! Oh yeah and then climb up the steps to Mister Moneybags! Limerick… the Bank of England County.

  3. They are an awesone. Awesome team,
    What a team they are.
    Some bitter people cant handle it,
    Thank god most of the country appreciates the mental toughness and skills and coolness of these players under pressure.
    Never seen a team like this.
    Phenomenal Team
    Well done Limerick
    You deserve your success with all the injuries that team have had in the past two years and you still find a way to win👏

  4. Nice to see P.Casey moved into the middle more often given Nash's comments. His feet could open up more goals. Watching back the wind held the ball up on long ball.

  5. Split season is only fair for club players…For too long everything revolved around county squads only….huge gaps in between club games and county players not being allowed play with their clubs. Farcical system.
