Bit of a shock but Tralee lads were vastly superior tonight. Keith Evans, Eddie Healy, Seán O'Brien, Eddie Horan, Armin Heinrich, Evan Boyle all showed up big time tonight. Good few of them might feature in league for Kerry.

UCC are a bit of a shambles and not as strong as previous years. Their management needs changing at this stage. Billy Morgan was a legend in his day but at 80 odd, it's time to move on.

Was he involded tonight? UCC won the league final a month ago and Billy Morgan wasn't on the sideline, they did mention he was at home watching.

Is Aidan O'Rourke still in charge of GAA things at Queens?

Tight game for UU, what decent players would be playing for Limerick?

I know of a couple of top underage players from down south that are interested in going to UU. Is there anyone in the know about who they should approach? I believe the University has gone away from interviews and the personal statement isn't as important. If anyone can help then I'd greatly appreciate it.

Getting that and having the experience of playing for a top team is good also

They do have some set up to be fair, they have a serious pick though, so any players coming up would need to be pretty decent
