Another question... In hurling for a goal to count is it the whole of the ball has to cross the line or is that soccer? How much of the ball has to cross the line?

Tj Reid for sure. Maybe Diathi Burke? Canning in with a shout as always.  Kelly good shout. I would say Bennett too. Deburca yes.

Hegarty poty.
The whole of the ball has to cross the line - the umpire made a mistake with a 65 call in the second half where the ball hadn't crossed the line

What non-Limerick players will get into the All-Star team?

Tony Kelly definitely

TJ Reid maybe

What Waterford players?

Stephen O'Keeffe?

Lyons at half back will sneak in I think

Bennett will probably get a place despite a poor day today

De Burca will surely get in

Prunty the corner back might have a shout

Think Barron and Gleeson will miss out, Hutchison will miss out I think after being wiped out today

But which Limerick players don't get in? If Lyons and De Burca both get in, Byrnes would miss out

If Prunty gets in Nash would miss out

Cian Lynch might miss out

Be some competition in the half forward line - Hegarty, Morrissey, Bennett, Reid, Canning, Cathal Mannion

Much less competition in the full forward line - Aaron Gillane is the only full forward line player who is nailed on I think

Which shows how peripheral full forward line play has become to the game now - Limerick didn't score a goal in four of their five matches - only against Tipp they score a goal, they got three that day

And they only conceded three goals all championship and none in the last three matches

If you can score 30 points or over and stop goals going in at your own end, it's very hard to beat

I think there's a very good chance this season is going to produce a surprise title winner

But who it could be is anybody's guess

Even 80 points could win this title

General reaction from Liverpool supporters on Twitter is that they were lucky to even get the point today

You can't call it fairer than that

I trust everybody is thoroughly enjoying the unpredictable nature of the race and the general competitiveness

This is the sort of season people wanted



#1984
Limerick's swarming back is reminiscent of Dublin's, always seems to be two or three defenders hanging out of every Waterford forward
#1985
Another Waterford goal chance goes a begging

Again the strike was from up high and again not enough meat in the shot
#1986
Limerick's physical strength is on a different level to Waterford's I think

Waterford have struggled terribly to get their running game going, especially since half time

#1987
Shocker of a decision against Kevin Moran there by Liam Cahill's old team mate Fergal Horgan

Just when Waterford were showing small signs of life too
#1988
Limerick have got the start to the second half that Waterford needed

No way back from here surely

Waterford are living off scraps

Limerick are queueing up to score points

They'll hit 35 I think

Lessen the crimes of Hitler? Jesus wept, what a pathetic take on what I said. I am merely pointing out that more people died under the British Empire than under Hitler, Stalin and Mao, and you turn me into a Nazi. BTW, who invented the concentration camp?
If you're going to attempt to lessen the crimes of Hitler, as you did - expect to get pulled up on it!

I didn't turn you into a Nazi - you brought the Nazis up in an attempt to lessen their crimes - Sinn Fein and their supporters certainly don't seem to have a problem with Nazi dog whistles - as can be seen from Mary Lou McDonald honoring a Nazi collaborator in Sean Russell

It's very curious

And reasonable people would say, utterly pathetic

You really are a deluded fool. Your argument is the only thing that is utterly pathetic.
Again, personal abuse from a Shinner - but never arguments

Thanks

Like shooting fish in a barrel - metaphorically speaking, of course

As opposed to shooting real people, which Shinners prefer!

I thought Morrissey went in to "do" Gleeson with that tackle on Gleeson's tackle

Wouldn't be the first time I've seen a player aim for the vitals at the business end of the championship

Limerick are definitely not above a bit of shithousing




#1991
Limerick have been dominant yet Waterford have had at least four goal chances

You'd still struggle to see how Waterford can overcome the loss of De Burca and the strength of Limerick's bench

But Gleeson seems on it and if they come out of the blocks like against Kilkenny they're right there

Limerick are fouling a lot and when Waterford get good ball in that defence looks in bother

Mike Casey was quietly excellent at full back before this year but is injured
#1992
Tom Morrissey is heading for HOTY if Limerick win this

A much better pure hurler than Hegarty
#1993
Waterford badly need a goal

And you can't say they haven't had chances for them

Deflection, as expected.
The mantra of this snowflake fake-hysteria cult when they have been found out is to fend off any criticism and deem it as "clichéd bullshit".
Oh dear, it gets even more embarrassing.
You live your life entirely through the cliched mantra of Trumpism, the Tory party and The Sun, and think other people are embarrassing?  ;D

It's like talking to a five year old

And you'll keep going too

Lads like you would argue this year was 2023 until it actually was
There you go again. You keep proving my point.
Spewing out pre-rehearsed sound bites that have nothing to do with the topic at hand, people like you will not stop until the entire population is at the behest of the snowflake-approved agenda. It is similar to world war propaganda. 
I think you and the rest of yous must dream about Trump every night, such is your worrying obsession with him.
The repetition of the nonsense that the double standard fake hysteria brigade spews upon others, is actually similar to Trump, which makes it even better such is the irony involved.
You couldn't make it up ;D
