Patrick Horgan: It's not good for hurling that Waterford are out this early

One point from four games certainly doesn’t reflect how well the Déise have played throughout the Munster championship.

Limerick did enough on Sunday to get the win eventually, and given the conditions we had in the Gaelic Grounds, and Waterford’s performance, they’ll be very happy with the two points.

It was a strange game because the general expectation was that Limerick would eventually have too much, but it took a fair amount of time for them to get on top of Waterford, who were leading in the last quarter.
