Look Limerick will be back guns blazing cork were better I like to see cork win the all Ireland this year it's 19 years the last time they won a all Ireland from a Kilkenny man
Any Limerick fan who saw the bad days , only has to remember back to 2018 and how over the moon we were winning one , but we were served up 5 in 6 years, not in our wildest dreams could we have thought anything like that would happen, greatest team ever, thanks to Kiely and Kinnerk for all the great days
Rather than winning the 5 in a row I think a more defining moment in this teams history will be if they can retain Munster and win next yrs All-Ireland
We left everything out there on another day Cillane and Hego would have 3 goals between them Lots of positives with our bench and hopefully Peter Casey back next year
I have being going to limerick matches since the 90s. The last number of years have being the greatest 😊. Even last Sunday when they were down 7 points. They never gave up and brought it down to 2 points in the last few minutes of the match. They should bring out a dvd 📀 of the 4 full finals of the 4 in a row. I have them recorded on a USB box but they dont always work. They might not be there forever on u tube.😊
From a kilkenny mam brilliant game of hurling was a joy to watch if the gaa doesn't get their finger out and sort themselves out we will loose a lot of young hurlers coming up
Cork did their homework....they weren't given the pace and time they were used to....Fair play to the Rebels, my heart is with Clare though....although, I won't begrudge either side....
As a dub I can only admire this limerick hurling team, well done Cork you fellas played you’er hearts out and got over the line and good luck to both remaining teams in the final.
Don't let it be the end John, it was an honour to watch you and your team the past few years. Your respect and genuine gentleman aura you bring to hurling is breathe of fresh air. Of course I am delighted with the win, but it's still sad to see such a dominate team just fall short of the 5 in a row.
It is ...was at the Kerry five in a row defeat against Offaly and remember well that goal and a missed penalty ...I fancied Cork to win rare thing are improbable !
Great Limerick team but they've spent too much time in the gym. They've substituted strength for speed and Cork were faster than them all over the pitch. Someone like Tom Morrisey looks more like a full back than a wing forward. Also Limerick didn't use Gillane properly. Put the ball in front of him and he's deadly when he's on form as he was yesterday.
from a Cork guy who was in Hill 16 holy F*** that game was Fever Pitch it was that intense the F****** roar from Hill 16 every time Cork scored was incredible the noise shook hill 16 then fulltime whistle blows after all by the frank and the walters is blasting on the speaks thousands of cork people are singing in the Hill will never ever forget this day
Great game yesterday and Saturday both losers could have should have won but there has to be a loser, Limerick without a doubt one of the greatest teams ever and it goes to show you how extremely difficult it actually is to win 5 All Irelands in a row, Kilkenny are still the top team of their era 8 All Ireland final wins in 10 years Limerick have 5 All Ireland wins in 7 year years so they will need to win the next 3 All Irelands to match that similarly brilliant Kilkenny team but it is possible but it will be very difficult to do, still thank god we have the game of Hurling which by far is the best field game to watch ever.
That Kilkenny team wasn't in the same league as this Limerick team. They were too dependent on placing brown envelopes in the hands of grateful referees. Witness the 2009 final for example.
Kk team were superb but the only opposition for the 4 years was Tipp as Cork were on the decline. Beat 2 very poor teams in Waterford and Limerick at the time in 07 and 08. This Limerick team are ahead of them, fought tooth and nail over and over again and had Savage tests in Munster
Limerick have been a great team over the last few years but to be mentioned in the same breath as Brian Cody's legends they will have to come back and win the next two All Irelands now.
As a nuetral( KK) what a great game...testement to the Limerick team and supporters that is no gloating or ill feeling from other counties after today, only respect. Fair play to Cork though great match.....Jaysus we will have to put up with those hoors for a couple of years now..😂😂
If limerick weren't 🏆 wining all Irelands I would love to see Waterford win a all Ireland. I stayed in Piltown Killkenny in 99 to 2002 doing a Horticultural course in Kildalton College. We went into Waterford city on the odd Thursday night into the pubs.😊
Also, the Limerick players and all involved can be immensely proud of what they've achieved so far over the last few years. They really have set the new standard in all areas. 5 times All Ireland champions in 6 years, phenomenal, and 6 in a row Munster Championships... that's just ludicrous given the competition and talent in the Munster Championship. The only team to have ever done that in history. This one got away, was as close as you like, could have won, will hurt obviously, but even if they never won another match they've already immortalised themselves as one of hurlings GOATS. 🐐🙏
29 points would win most matches so credit Cork for bettering that score in semifinal against one of the most dogged, ferocious, talented never say die teams of all time. Both teams were worthy winners.
Some silly comments on here🤫. Man shows his class in fairness, no finger pointing, no whingeing, humble in victory, gracious in defeat. Galway supporter here, well done to Cork.
@@johnrohan398 I feel sorry for you, your full of hate,pity you can't feel the enjoyment I'm a Clare supporter , and we have watched limerick and learned, Hope we can go all the way now .
Thanks John and management, your panel of players have given so much excitement ,joy, a new level of hurling, ye owe nothing to yer county, Thanks for the entertainment, good health, happiness to ye all. Clare fan,
Limerick probably played as bad as they'd ever play. And they still could easily have beaten a cork team who, bar Horgan, had a dream day. Just goes to show how great this Limerick team is and I'm sure they'll be favourites again next year
Are u having a laugh 🤣🤣 if not for the ref cork would have won by more . Clear hand passed been called as throws while clear throws for Limerick been given as handpasses. A perfect goal for cork not given . Twice beaten by cork this year . Limerick showing alot more class than their fans
What a joke of a comment. First half in the round robin against waterford limerick hit about 20 wides. Limerick were just beaten by the better team on the day
