A third title since 2018 for Limerick and yet much of the wonderment that met their performance yesterday was married with the cold realisation that this could well have been a day when the county sealed a fourth on the trot.

The sense that John Kiely’s team are well down the road of a hostile takeover of hurling’s boardroom is undeniable and that makes it hard not to drift back to that semi-final in 2019 when they were denied their shot at an equaliser against Kilkenny.
