Ryan: We must learn from pain and focus on positives

“FLYING IT!” That was the surprising reaction of Limerick selector TJ Ryan yesterday when asked how he was feeling after Sunday’s heartbreaking late-goal loss to Waterford in the Munster SHC semi-final.

Ryan: We must learn from pain  and focus on  positives

“That’s hurling, you have to get on with it. We are in the qualifiers which is not our preferred route but at least it’s there and gives us a chance to recover. We must learn from the negatives and build on the positives. The most important thing is to keep working and get a championship win under our belt.”

Upbeat he may have been yesterday but that wasn’t the case immediately after the game, and that wasn’t the case with the players either whose disappointment was evident in the number of helmets and hurleys flung away in disgust at the final whistle. In a second-half display of power, passion and purpose, Limerick had the champions on the rack but failed to capitalise and were punished at the death.
