Replying To bloodandbandage:  "You are right, we are sickened, but we are sickened at our own team and the same old failings that continue to dog us. Have nothing but admiration for this Galway team and wish them all the best for the final."
That just leaves the Loughrea lads so BnB

Well Munster have won everything in at least the last year: Senior, U20, Minor, Club, etc, it is high time to change this. For the sake of hurling you want more than one Province winning everything. Hon Galway.

Good luck on Sunday lads.

Galway are the next generation - I suspect their time is now.

Today is the day... all the training done, tactics gone through with the team. Is Rabbitte going to be left up top on his own, is Mannion going to vacat the 11 roll and drop deep... does this leave Galway wide open to be hit for 30 points from 50-60 yards... Roll on 3:30 and all the questions will be answered

Nothing to be gained from that experience at all.
A closer final would have stood to the younger players but a hammering like that?
As well off trying to forget about it.

Limerick are class but how many Galway players actually had good games. We kept carrying the ball around the middle and they were swarming us. Cathal Mannion alone must have been turned over 5 times.

Nothing to be gained from the excitement levels over the past fortnight, the thousands of Galway supporters who enjoyed the day, the pride those players brought to the county? What a miserable post to put up in the aftermath of a defeat to the greatest team of all time
