Quote from: Jim Bob on December 17, 2023, 05:33:12 PMJoe not impressed with JP in his independent article this morning.
Joe is a socialist now, so isn't allowed to be impressed.

Quote from: seafoid on December 17, 2023, 12:21:26 PMHow much has he spent on the Limerick hurlers?
He gifted the county board millions to finish the Gaelic Grounds. He gave every player 100k when they won the All Ireland in 2017. Probably throws about a million a year into the running costs as well.

St Thomas's win yesterday will be a great fill up for Galway hurling. They need to close the deal now in the final.

He is eroding one of Limerick's big advantages a little bit.
Must be very confident they won't be caught!

Ideally JP would stay in Ireland and pay his taxes, but then the government would just blow it on more HSE wastage and Social Welfare payments.
At least this way the money goes to an organisation that promotes health and wellbeing.

I have watched (and enjoyed) Hijack.  Is there anything else worth watching on the platform?
Bad Sisters maybe.

Conor Whelan is nailed on. After that it's not looking good for Galway.

Farrell, proving once again that he can't tackle - shoulder to head.
Can't tackle? Or just a thug who tries to take opponents out with cheap head shots?

I had a feeling that Cork were going to sneak it in 2013 even if O'Dwyer had stayed on the field.
Still it was a year that any of the unfancied counties could have won it because Tipp and Kilkenny were in disarray.

I'd say Osgur Breathnach and many others might just have a little problem with that.

Why, was he a junkie causing a nuisance on Talbot Street?

No team from the past of present could live with how Limerick played in the last 45 minutes against Galway.

One of the ways to clean up Dublin city would be to have a Garda force more empowered to dish out a bit of justice to trouble makers.
In most European countries the police don't tolerate roaming zombies, beggars and junkies.

Would we be willing to accept Gardai getting tougher and using the baton, pepper spray and tasers a bit more generously?
It would upset the civil liberties and the NGO industry, but I suspect the silent majority would be fine with it.

Limerick look a mile ahead of the rest once again. Once they got going they are hard to stop. Everything they do, even the little things like Casey conning the ref a couple of times, is ruthless.

Galway's decision making on the field was terrible. Ball after ball wasted by dropping down on the Limerick defence. Very little on the bench to shake it up either.

JP must be injecting the players with testosterone!
