Déjà vu all over again

DON’T be fooled by the scoreline above, especially if you’re a Limerick hurling supporter.

As they did in their League opener last week against Galway in Kilmallock, Limerick tried, gallantly and gamely, and in Shane O’Neill, Nicky Quaid, Paul Browne, Brian O’Sullivan and Thomas O’Brien they had players of real class.

Overall, however, they are simply not good enough for this level. Any time Cork needed to up the ante, they did so, brushing the youngsters in green aside.
