Limerick are worse than Waterford and are only there to make up the numbers the whole country knows that but them. Wake up and get real ye have no chance of beating Tipp in croker they will run rings around ye as any other Munster team would do. Congrats on beating Laois and Wexford and Dublin that spells a great year for Limerick.

defeatest you've got to be having a laugh, if any County can't say anything it's Cork ye've done nothing in the last 4 years, Kilkenny only beat Limerick by 7 points in 07 and they beat ye last year by more, if ye spent as much time and thought in ye're hurling as ye did in planning ye're strikes ye might actually win a game.

I'm going to enjoy the semi final regardless of the result and no matter who wins, no matter who is the manager next year, no matter what players line out, I'll be supporting Limerick Sunday & next year.

I'm glad I'm not at home on my pc bursting a blood vessel because my side were eliminated at the second qualifier round stage.

Cant wait for sunday. We have had 5 tough games this year (the 1st game against waterford and the day in wexford were both horendous conditions) and they have brought us on massively. If we David Breen had taken easy chance to beat waterford the 1st day i think we would have lost to Tipp and then lost in the qualifiers. Justin has had plenty of hands on time with the guys and we have 4 new names in the forwards who wouldnt have been automatic choices at the start of the year. I like this Tipp team. Start of the year i thought they would go on and win the AI and were they to overcome us on Sunday i would love them to win it for couple of my best mates. I think we can rattle them on Sunday. A good start and not conceding any early goals. Tipp are favourites and on form would win by 5/6 points. But why bother turning up if we didnt think we could do it. Limerick by 2 points

Here we go again the Limerick dreamers are coming out after beating nothing all year, think of me when ye are leaving with 15 mins to go and 10 points down ha ha ha. btw it was the 3rd round of qualifiers Cork lost and there are still alot of Cork teams left in the AI series no more Limerick after Sunday :(

Unfortunately it appears that the defeatist is right. Croke Park is like a wake house. I hope that Limerick can fire in a couple of goals early on in the second half just to raise a bit of interest.

Worst game ever no atmosphere or nothing.. Very dissapointed with limerick. Justin mc carthy has a awful semi final hoodoo dosent he! Tipp are impressive..

Disappointing game. Tipp looked very impressive and for the first time I am beginning to believe that they might come close to stopping the Cats. Everything went wrong for Limerick, it is totally demoralising to get a beating like that. Hurling in Limerick does not need days like this, hopefully they can recover from it quickly.

it is a fair reflection of the gap btw the 2!i think limerick hurling died 2day,hope im wrong but i think im not somehow

Shocking gap in standards for an All Ireland semi. Is hurling in deep trouble when we get a one sided match like this following on last year's final debacle & also the 2007 final disaster? I hope Tipp can make a game of it in the final but I fear the worst.

Great performance by Tipp but ye'd have had better preparation with a 70minute training session. I hope ye do it, I really do, but my one concern is the lack of fight that Limerick posed to ye today. Nothing worse than such a one sided semifinal as preparation for a sterner test in the final. Have seen it time and time again where teams put up a cricket score in a semi and fall flat in the final. It is a great Tipp team and personally I think if ye do play close to the best of yere capacity ye will win. Less than perfection could still beat Kilkenny. Only my opinion.
