Richie Bennis: Croker roar spooked Limerick in 2007 final

Richie Bennis contends the roar that greeted the Limerick players as they ran out for the 2007 All-Ireland final spooked them.

Featuring in TG4’s Laochra Gael programme this Sunday, the former county manager admits the incredible reception at Croke Park upset the team as they lost to Kilkenny by seven points.

Even the appearance of Bennis’ face on the big screen before the warm-up prompted unbridled applause from the county’s following in Croke Park.
