John Kiely reacts as Limerick's dreams end in Croke Park - "We had chances" #SportLK

Look Limerick will be back guns blazing cork were better I like to see cork win the all Ireland this year it's 19 years the last time they won a all Ireland from a Kilkenny man

Pure Gentleman from a Cork supporter

I'm not a hurler but I've enjoyed watching Limerick the last few years. They brought a new physical side to hurling

I have being going to limerick matches since the 90s. The last number of years have being the greatest 😊. Even last Sunday when they were down 7 points. They never gave up and brought it down to 2 points in the last few minutes of the match. They should bring out a dvd 📀 of the 4 full finals of the 4 in a row. I have them recorded on a USB box but they dont always work. They might not be there forever on u tube.😊

Put a priest outfit on him and you have fr.ted

Loved Pat Ryan putting the run on Kinnerk for venturing into the Cork mentor's area. It's not the first time he's done that. He ventured to close to an opponents subs area in a match and was told " fuck off Kinnerk you didn't invent the game "

Limerick diddnt start getting on top till last 10, 15 minutes

From a kilkenny mam brilliant game of hurling was a joy to watch if the gaa doesn't get their finger out and sort themselves out we will loose a lot of young hurlers coming up

Cork did their homework....they weren't given the pace and time they were used to....Fair play to the Rebels, my heart is with Clare though....although, I won't begrudge either side....

As a limerick fan we r proud of you and we will be back next year up limerick

As a dub I can only admire this limerick hurling team, well done Cork you fellas played you’er hearts out and got over the line and good luck to both remaining teams in the final.

Don't let it be the end John, it was an honour to watch you and your team the past few years. Your respect and genuine gentleman aura you bring to hurling is breathe of fresh air. Of course I am delighted with the win, but it's still sad to see such a dominate team just fall short of the 5 in a row.

Great Limerick team but they've spent too much time in the gym. They've substituted strength for speed and Cork were faster than them all over the pitch. Someone like Tom Morrisey looks more like a full back than a wing forward. Also Limerick didn't use Gillane properly. Put the ball in front of him and he's deadly when he's on form as he was yesterday.

From a Cork supporter what a fantastic team LImerick have been over the last few years and this game was in the melting pot right to the end.

Great champions wasn't mad on there style of hurling.refreshing to have to new teams in final.

A great performance by Cork but Limerick never got a rub of the green , But both semi finals where classics that will be spoken about for years

Hurling was a winner this weekend. 2 fantastic games 4 great teams giving their all well done ❤❤

Great game yesterday and Saturday both losers could have should have won but there has to be a loser, Limerick without a doubt one of the greatest teams ever and it goes to show you how extremely difficult it actually is to win 5 All Irelands in a row, Kilkenny are still the top team of their era 8 All Ireland final wins in 10 years Limerick have 5 All Ireland wins in 7 year years so they will need to win the next 3 All Irelands to match that similarly brilliant Kilkenny team but it is possible but it will be very difficult to do, still thank god we have the game of Hurling which by far is the best field game to watch ever.

John kiely is a very honest man and an outstanding manager

Unlucky Limerick what a fantastic team, they’ve made the rest of the teams have to come up to there standards but yesterday was our day, rebels Abu

Class act Kiely have huge respect for him. Even in defeat he speaks well 👏👏

Limerick have been a great team over the last few years but to be mentioned in the same breath as Brian Cody's legends they will have to come back and win the next two All Irelands now.

Sometimes the well runs dry but Limerick are a brilliant team Cork we're better on the day

As a nuetral( KK) what a great game...testement to the Limerick team and supporters that is no gloating or ill feeling from other counties after today, only respect.
Fair play to Cork though great match.....Jaysus we will have to put up with those hoors for a couple of years now..😂😂

Great team what a group they have brought hurling to a new level thanks Waterford supporter

😅😅drive for 5 ..😂

To Limerick well done and thank you one and all ye be back next year super lads but for now come on the Banner

A great man, speaking sense.

the amount of throwing the ball around from limerick was unreal

Also, the Limerick players and all involved can be immensely proud of what they've achieved so far over the last few years. They really have set the new standard in all areas.

5 times All Ireland champions in 6 years, phenomenal, and 6 in a row Munster Championships... that's just ludicrous given the competition and talent in the Munster Championship. The only team to have ever done that in history.

This one got away, was as close as you like, could have won, will hurt obviously, but even if they never won another match they've already immortalised themselves as one of hurlings GOATS. 🐐🙏

29 points would win most matches so credit Cork for bettering that score in semifinal against one of the most dogged, ferocious, talented never say die teams of all time. Both teams were worthy winners.

Some silly comments on here🤫. Man shows his class in fairness, no finger pointing, no whingeing, humble in victory, gracious in defeat. Galway supporter here, well done to Cork.

Come out after the game and applaud the winner's. Forced to come out in the end. Poor showing. Bye bye limerick.

I don't think I will live to see a better all round hurling team than Limerick offaly

Thanks John and management, your panel of players have given so much excitement ,joy, a new level of hurling, ye owe nothing to yer county, Thanks for the entertainment, good health, happiness to ye all. Clare fan,

Limerick probably played as bad as they'd ever play. And they still could easily have beaten a cork team who, bar Horgan, had a dream day. Just goes to show how great this Limerick team is and I'm sure they'll be favourites again next year

Great teams win five in a row up the Dubs

Limerick waited since 1973 for an all Ireland final, win 5 ,4 in a row, no-one in Limerick is complaining,cork were better today.

5 All Irelands in 6 years is some achievement, what a bunch of lads,limerick will surely be back next year

Jesus. The whole world is glued to the Euros, and some people are watching this pointless bog ball shite

Limerick need a few more million pumped in next year and to broaden their 53 backroom staff.

What game was he watching, Limerick were hopeless

Is Kinnirk under the table whispering the answers to him?

Limerick were too cocky that's why they lost.😅

Ya gglaringly obvious at half time that we needed bit of different approach shane and adam should have been brought on earlier will Donohue hagarty and Flanagan had run out juice

Hats off to Limerick their acceptance of defeat was as honourable as their graciousness as Champions for the past 4 years. I was a little surprised that their sideline did not make the changes that were glaringly obvious at half time but it shows once again it is hard to move away from the tried and trusted. From a Cork perspective the one great feeling I have from today's mighty win was that I will get to see that great servant of Cork hurling the one and only Pat Horgan hopefully win the All Ireland medal he richly deserves. Rebels Abu. Ray Hennessy Bantry

If that was his last match as manager, thanks John. He has nothing more to prove, and I don't see him as a Cody like figure, continuing to build teams. Someone else will have big boots to fill if he does go.

Maybe telling that John Kiley says "Limerick will regroup again" and not "we will regroup again". I hope he's not thinking about stepping aside.

A bitter pill to swallow. It was a fantastic game of hurling. I'm sure this Limerick team will come back with a bang next year. Luimneach abù.
