Whats the BBC player cam like?

Ger Loughnane loving this Limerick performance so far

[Armagh18]

What is this ref at?

[GTP]

Why is the commentary concentrating on the family tree of the players? Ref seems to be doing OK any replays they show look like fouls

[Blowitupref]

Half time Limerick 0-13 Galway 0-8.  Limerick getting their scores easier.

Galways touch is letting them down, Whelan in particular.  They can't work the ball through this Limerick middle third at all.

Limerick are playing well without being spectacular and will be happy to be 5 up and coming out to a wind advantage in the second half.

Galway aren't out of it but will need to get a good start to the second half.

Daithi Burke needs to be put on Hegarty ASAP and let the more mobile Glennon sweeping.

Not yet, probably would be had the Galway goalkeeper didn't pull off a few good saves.  Galway sure to have a purple patch at some stage in this final.

Odds before the match started  Limerick 4/9 Galway 5/2 and 17/2 for a draw


Odds at half time

Limerick 1/6 Galway 5/1 draw after 70 minutes 9/1.

[EoinW]

A poor first half from Galway.  It took them 17 minutes to score from play!

I thought you were allowed three full forwards in hurling.  It appears Galway are playing with one.  That's not a winning attacking strategy.

Limerick are, simply, dominant.  My sole criticism is that they've left Galway in the game.  It's going to take some miraculous halftime adjustments for this thing to be turned around.  Nevertheless, if Galway can continue to linger close by they might get an inspirational lucky break towards the end.

Yes that's very wishful thinking.

[SCFC]

Shocker of a game. Galway haven't turned up at all.

[gerrykeegan]

Galway very poor. Limerick man for man better everywhere.

[johnnycool]

Limerick giving an example to all here.

1-19 to 0-10 after 43 minutes.

As I said. Its over. Double scores now

1-19 to 0-11

[Tatler Jack]

Galway out of their depth and can't win or retain possession. Limerick foul continuously knowing ref won't pull them for everything and if he does blow all they concede is a point.
