Dublin were more than a match for Limerick today.

Dublin are now at a different level.
Are they?
Last year they played a full strength Wexford team and narrowly lost.
This year Wexford needed to be decimated by injuries before Dublin beat them.
I wouldn't be be giving Anthony Daly the Freedom of Dublin just yet!

The only thing that should touch the sliothar should be a hurl.
Ban handpassing and kicking before the game turns into football.

Davy Fitz is a chancer.
If managing a team amounts to jumping up and down on the sideline like an orangutan then he fits the bill.

GAA Discussion / Re: Croke Park protest begins

Let them off.
A few years back the residents associations were getting freebie tickets and flogging them for cash, until the GAA copped on!
Now the next U2 concert is in jeopardy because of their tactics.

I hate going to Cusack Park as it is a kip of a ground for a start plus it's so tight matches can easily descend into a dogfight there.
Damn right it is a kip. The worst ground in Munster by far.
Clare blew the property boom by selling it when they could.

I think Clare will yet again beat a Galway team that think they are going well.
Remember 2002 as well?

I'd say if you put a camera in the Kilkenny dressingroom last Saturday evening, you would have had similar scenes!  :D

You don't have to learn any player names being a Dublin supporter.
Just refer to them by the number on their back when you're abusing them!
No one on the Hill will bat an eyelid.

Great spirit by Clare but Tipp played down a level today, it was poor stuff IMO compared to Galway KK.
Tipp of old would have beaten Clare out the gate and shown no mercy, which I would have enjoyed immensely.
However we are pacing ourselves for another assault on the Cats at the business end of the championship.

Did you see on the Sunday game where Big Diarmaid Mc Mahon took a shot, it hit the post and came back out but the umpire gave the goal ?????????
Madness!
Where do they get these lads from?

Luckily Tipp always had the situation under control.

I don't see why you should tip?
In America its a pain in the hole.
You have to give the bar man a dollar for removing the lid off a bottle.

It is getting as bad in Ireland. I had a meal come to €41 in Cork.
I gave the waiter a €50 note and he never came back. I had to go to the till and demand my €9.
They were really snotty about it of course.
The cheek of them for thinking they deserve a €9 tip.

Ciaran Carey v Clare in 1996

Carey's was also real inspirational stuff

The Clare defence were falling over like drunks on an ice rink there.
If he didn't get that point, he should have been ashamed of himself.

love this point!


EDIT: Gl got their before me!

I was right behind it on the Hill that day.
Its easy put them over when you have Philly Larkin puffing and wheezing behind you!
Kennedy at centre back was on a yellow card too, otherwise he'd have flattened Broderick.

His father did a terrible job of passing on the love of hurling he is supposed to have!
He has never hit a ball before in his life, for God's life.
My son would be made go out and puck a ball, even if we emigrated to the Antarctic.
