Hurling 2024

[Blowitupref]

No late changes in personnel for Limerick or Galway

Good opening 20 mins. Galway have recovered well for the early goal conceded and they lead 1-9 to 1-5.

Half time Galway 1-13 Limerick 1-12.  The tribesmen deserve their half time lead but Limerick finished the half strongly.

Limerick in trouble

Expect Galway to fill their togs in second half.

Game on BBC 2. Coverage well ahead of RTE.

Limerick in trouble

Other way around now, looks inevitable at this stage

Galway look flat and Limerick are just playing it around.

That has to be the end of Shefflin?

As a neutral it seems  The Ref let Limerick away with a fair amount of over physical tackles.
Galway are gone but when the game was in the melting pot he let Limerick away with a fair bit, while blowing Galway.

Full time Limerick 2-24 Galway 1-18.  From the 28th minute today Limerick showed why they are going for 4 All Ireland titles in a row or 5 out of the last 6 All Ireland titles on offer.

Apparently Galway hurlers have won just 1 of their last 12 Championship matches in Croke Park. Limerick in comparison have won 9 of their last 10 championship games in Croke Park. (only defeat to Kilkenny by 1 point in the 2019 AI semi final)

Shades of Mayo v Dublin in the football semi final last weekend.  Mayo like Galway today doing well for 28 minutes then the fitter and stronger side took over to win pulling up.

Man of the Match award looks like a Junior Cert woodwork project.
