Dont know if anyone cares but if you're bored like me during the covid times you can stream all the latest series on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my gf during the lockdown =)
Limerick only won this final because Eddie Keher was absent from the panel. Otherwise Limerick would have went from 1941 to 2017 without winning the c'ship.
From the team that won the Leinster final that year, they lost Eddie Keher & Jim Treacy to injury, Eamon Morrisey emigrated, Keiran Purcell couldn’t start due to injury & only made a breif appearance when the game was lost, Frank Cummins went into the game carrying a shoulder injury, Pat Delaney had the flu in the days leading up to the final, & to put the cherry on the cake, Liam O Brien gets his head opened up with a swing of a hurl at the throw in. So if Limerick couldn’t do it that day, that team, and to be fair they were a good team, might never have won an All Ireland. With a full strength squad a year later, it was a more accurate reflection of how things stood, albeit Kilkenny were extremely lucky to get out of Leinster against Wexford in 74
I might have sounded begrudgingly but I didn't mean it like that. Limerick deserved to win 1973 and it's a pity that they didn't get to win many more. These days are historic and Limerick play the game very powerfully, it's up to everyone else to try to keep up.
my da's cousin played in this,
his name was Sean Foley and I was almost renamed after him
My father got a hurley from Jim Tracy that he used that day in 1973. I still have it and when I go to my grave its going into the casket with me.
hello, i was wondering if you had the all ireland final for 1971 or where i can find it
Good to see the Catholic church no longer are treated like royalty these days..
What's the Catholic Church got do with this match.
@@johndoyle2429 Absolutely nothing but some sad people are so anti-Catholic they qill use any excuse or occasion to spew out their hatred.
