Limerick manager John Kieley can rightfully bask in well-deserved credit today after delivering a second All-Ireland in three years to Shannonside in relentless style yesterday.
But of course, in a team game success is never delivered alone. In Limerick’s case, a picture doing the rounds on WhatsApp detailing the backroom team gained a bit of traction on Sunday night due to the sheer volume of names on it, with 20 people from coaches to psychologists to statistical analysts and everything in between all part of the win.
The investment made into the county by Treaty native JP McManus to help fund such a set-up is no secret but for Waterford legend John Mullane, it was the first name underneath Kiely’s that deserved special praise.
WHEN Brian Cody’s great Kilkenny team started to break up, I was convinced of one thing – that I’d never see their likes again.
Kilkenny had been so good for so long that it felt like they were a team of a lifetime. One that would stand head and shoulders above the rest.
But for me Limerick are forcing their way into that conversation.
If it sounds a little premature to compare John Kiely’s team to the team that won six of seven All-Irelands, let me explain.
Limerick are in the midst of a golden era. They have now picked up six trophies in just over two years. Two leagues, two Munster titles and now the Liam MacCarthy twice. And today they could quite easily have been playing for a three in-a-row of All-Ireland titles had they gotten a better decision on the ‘65’ that wasn’t in last year’s All-Ireland semi-final.
