It's the GA Social Live from All-Ireland Final Day in Croke Park. And the Limerick team, who just captured the Lee McCarthy Cup, are going to go sailing by us in a few minutes. They're over at Hill 16 enjoying every single minute. And we have lost a Galway man, who I think said he had to go to the toilet. I'm not convinced about David Burke. I don't think he can take too much more. But we've four beautiful human beings in front of us, and we've got to go to the Limerick man first. Seamus, congratulations from a Limerick perspective.
Some performance. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. I suppose Aaron said it there, probably hard to put into words, the work with it. Galway never got any opportunity to play their Hurling at all. No platform, just snuffed out everything. It was probably the most complete performance that I've seen from that Limerick team in quite a while.
It definitely felt like the best, we were talking about commentary, the best of the year, Jamesy, unquestionably. It felt like the best. It's so loud here, you see. We've been struggling with this all day.
It's their best performance of the year. I think so, Thomas, yeah. I mean, phenomenal performance. I mean, the intensity they brought. You know, obviously, look at... You know, they'd have been disappointed with how they played against Clare in the semi-final, but there was nothing left to chance this afternoon, tactically, physically, the intensity, everything about the performance, the accuracy, the efficiency. And they breached that 30-point margin that they hadn't in the previous two matches. So, I mean, a synthetic an All-Ireland victory, probably since the one against Cork, you know, in 2021. So, no questions about who's the best team in the country this year, Thomas. Yeah. Paul, what did you make of it?
What did you make of it?
yeah look i don't think anybody expected galway to underperform as they did realistically um you know when they're going in at half time there they only had two scores from my cards that were actually on the board at that stage limerick as far back as the half backline dead scores as well so um come out in the second half and that green juggernaut just took off and we were looking at it the energy was sucked out of the stadium once carl o'neill got that goal you started to see people drift it's very unfortunate as a spectacle on the day yeah but The one thing I said to Jamesy upstairs, I was saying, the time that you doubt Limerick, they come back and they show you what they're about. And look, an incredible team.
It's just amazing stuff. Yeah, it was just, it was incredible. And it's a privilege to watch this team because we kind of thought, is that it? Is the four in a row, is that it? But I'm not so sure because we've... We've one of the most special hurlers I have ever seen in my entire life. And I think he's going to come over here now. So we're going to we're going to bring in Geroad Higgarty, who is just a man mountain seems to be getting bigger. Isn't that lovely?
Isn't that lovely? Neil, could you give him his mic? Well done, big man. Fair play to you, horse.
Fair play to you. Take two mics, three mics. Well done, man. Can you sum up how you're feeling right now?
That's always the million-dollar question, I suppose. You can't really. It's been a tough year. They're always tough years, you know what I mean? But I suppose the scoreboard was in a good position for us for the last five minutes, you know what I mean? So you could kind of relax and take it all in a little bit more than normal, but... I suppose those couple of minutes, now that we just got to experience, but it's also just this evening and tomorrow and Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
