On Point: Sunday will be a game of inches - Shane Dowling

I HAVE often wondered over recent years, especially the last four, mainly as a player and now as a spectator, do we really appreciate what we have? I mean, I grew up as a kid really looking forward to a Munster Championship game because I knew it ...

Opinion - I'd rather be Limerick than Tipp this Sunday - Shane Dowling

SO much felt different for a championship Sunday. The stands at Semple Stadium devoid of any fans. A yellow sliothar flying around the place. An October start date for a summer tradition. Managers wearing wooly caps. Substitutes covering ...

Opinion: Last hurdle to nail Liam - Shane Dowling

WHEN we all wake up Sunday morning next, I suppose it won’t be the same for any of us. Well, it certainly won’t be the same for me. Usually, on a big match day, I would wake up good and early, go for a walk before having a bit of ...

OPINION: Puckout battle will be crucial in deciding Sunday's final - Shane Dowling

AND just like that - the biggest day in the year of the hurling calendar is upon us. And yet again, Limerick are front and centre. I was talking to a buddy of mine whose child is 9 years of age and stone mad about hurling. He ...

OPINION: Second half display was the most intense of 2023 - Shane Dowling

DID anyone else have that feeling at some stage throughout the first half of Saturday's All-Ireland hurling semi-final with Galway at Croke Park? Maybe, just maybe, Limerick's run was about to come to an end? I won't lie - I ...

OPINION: Limerick's five-in-a-row is some achievement - Shane Dowling

ON an occasion like last Sunday, it’s actually impossible to even know where to start. From a supporter's viewpoint, it’s all about the occasion. Well, the result is more important, but before a ball is thrown-in, you have ...

OPINION: This is Limerick's biggest Munster final of last five - Shane Dowling

IT was only Bank Holiday Monday, six days before the big one, and the banter and slagging had already started! I’m stuck in the Camán Racing Syndicate which was swept up by Anthony Daly's crew on the Irish Examiner ...

OPINION: My hurling Team of the Year for the 2022 season - Shane Dowling

TEAMS of the Year and All-Stars always create healthy debate. My only rule in picking these are that players had to play in the position they are selected in for the majority of the season and players also have to ...

OPINION: 'Let's turn Croker into sea of green for Galway clash' - Shane Dowling

I DON'T know can other people say the same, but the week leading up to a big match has me in good form and generally the week flies as you know what's coming. On a personal level, I'm going hitting for the big ...

OPINION: Limerick's character and courage shone in an epic - Shane Dowling

IT'S not often I call games right, but I just had a feeling that Sunday's Munster hurling final was going to be a be a humdinger. It had every ingredient for it to be, and it didn’t leave us down! Growing up ...

Opinion: Limerick U20s lose out but development is crucial - Shane Dowling

I WOULD have loved nothing more to have hit for Thurles last Sunday afternoon to support our under 20’s, but instead I wobbled in the door at about 13.25 after landing back from a two-day stag in Westport. ...

On Point: No doubts remain around Limerick team's hunger - Shane Dowling

THINK it’s all fair to say that whether the Limerick supporters travelled down to the Lee side or watched it on the box, there was definitely a sense of the unknown. After Limerick’s lacklustre league ...
