Well, we came, we saw and we got the life frightened out of us but........we live to fight another day! To be honest, we deserved that second chance and so indeed, do Limerick. Our biggest problems to my mind were in midfield and centre-back. Having said that, if our forwards had taken all the scoring chances they got, we'd have been out of sight. Our subs made a very noticable improvement...in particular Adam O'Reilly and JB Spillane. Both must start on Saturday. Patrick Curtin will need to step up to the mark further.We don';t appear to have a free-taker which is a huge drawback at any level. Cormac Power at centre-forward for Limerick is going to be extremely hard to contain as he was last night so the biggest task in that regard is to identify our best centreback. Our midfield is light weight and although both guys are clearly good footballers, they're pushed around too easy for my liking. Barry John Walsh was a big disappointment...tried for the killer pass too often and it never came off. In fairness, he was trying to move the ball further than the rest but it never came off for him. Limerick tended to defend in numbers in our back line when we were trying to come out with the ball and we were caught in possession a lot which is something that needs to be addressed. The players showed good character to battle away...they got very little from the Waterford referee (no surprise there then!) and provided they knuckle down from the start and kleep the tempo high as they did in spurts last night, I think they'll win saturdays replay.

Just checked it out on munster website,says replay is fixed for saturday at 330 in stacks park.I suppose there arent too many of the minors who will be playin senior championship anyway.
Limerick and Kerry must replay their Munster MFC semi-final after Colm Downes’ last-gasp point earned the Shannonsiders a 0-11 to 2-5 draw at the Gaelic Grounds on Wednesday night, May 9.
The replay has been fixed for Tralee on Saturday at 3.30pm. The Kingdom made a dream start when Patrick Curtin goaled after just 20 seconds. Surprisingly, the visitors were not to score again until midway through the half when James Doolin pointed.
In between, county senior panelist Ian Ryan converted a hat-trick of frees to bring Limerick level and a further point from Cormac Power left the sides deadlocked on 0-4 to 1-1 at the break.
Kerry had opened up a 1-5 to 0-5 lead before Eoin Kennedy looked to have settled the issue with a second goal 15 minutes from the end. But Limerick refused to throw in the towel and scores from Gerry O’Toole and Bobby O’Brien had reduced the deficit to the minimum before Downes’ equalizer arrived in injury-time.
Scorers – Kerry: P Curtin and E Kennedy 1-1 each, J Doolan 0-2, A O’Reilly 0-1. Limerick: I Ryan 0-4, C Downes 0-3, C Power 0-2, G O’Toole and B O’Brien 0-1 each.

What a fantastic sentence .."Because the family live in ballinskelligs on the edge of st finians bay under the shadow of the skellig michael one of the most beautiull places in south kerry and indeed in the kingdom of kerry". not the minister,just a hopeless romantic who delights from the splenders that the glorious iveragh penninsula's rugged beauty beholds.When waking now on time allowed on the penninsula, the breath taking beauty stretching along the lenght of dingle bay as the eye wanders out to the blaskets tingles the cockles of the heart and warms it, as the gentle breeze blows in off the sea caressing its golden beaches dotted along its majestic cliffed coast line that protects its often barren heathered rugged lands, as the seagulls and off shore birds intermingle singing morning songs of delight and happiness.Such beauty inter twined with a stable diet while being reared on sheehy,liston,egan taunting fullback lines enabled a never ending love of south kerry to flourish in the heart and never wilt or wain to generate a constant soothing happiness akin to feasting on caviarre for breakfast,lunch and dinner washed down by an exspensive vintage champange while gently pulling on a half corona cigar, with the video kerrys golden years reminising merrily in the corner,liston egan sheehy,the ball is in the net,kerry march on. |
