And either of those gone in, particularly the second one, in the second half, the game was over.
And you could say, argue that down the other end of the field as well.
But, you know, his puck outs were brilliant in the conditions as well.
I think there were 75%.
I know his short puck outs, again...
they're going to be always 100% but overall it was 75% maybe is against 58% or something for Cork and those things make a difference at the end of the day but it's incredible to have someone like him
I'd imagine for the players in front of him, the calmness that he brings and the integrity and the love for the Limerick jersey, that history and all that means an awful lot.
There's a couple of things, Joe.
There's a couple of things I'd say.
I think it was the first week I was on here, we were talking about James Owens, that match.
Because he had refereed the awfully Dublin match.
the Sunday before that match in Cork and I was saying he refereed the games completely differently the off-league one he was fussy if you want to call it fussy applying the rules if it's fussy there is a lot of fouling going on and we know this practically every collision at Inter County top level every ball there's nearly a foul in every collision because somebody's trying to get the upper hand it's always the way so there's always an arm in and he set the tone I actually think probably by standards of Munster Championship the penalty was harsh on his but it was a penalty
but then you lose credibility and you don't give the penalty to the other end, as Colm says, for the same thing.
But on an overall sense, I think it's been, and I agree with your point, Joe, talking about referees, I think Ben O'Connor was better off yesterday just saying, we lost by a point, we're still in the championship, we'll see you around, lads.
I think, you know, but Ben's personality, as you say, he is box office, he has a lot to say, he's, as he says himself, he's a cranky individual, that's on the record.
People are calling for the red card.
That's me.
I'm doing the commentary about Conor McHugh.
It is a red card all day long.
You can't just fly into a tackle like that recklessly and maybe take someone's head off.
