I was wrong about Cats but Limerick at another level (RTE.ie)

Our columnist has been impressed with Kilkenny in their first league campaign under Derek Lyng but is not convinced they can reverse the All-Ireland final ...

Something that will intrigue the rest of the mangers watching on is, if you push up on Limerick and don't allow them time to work that ball out can you beat them? In the semi-final win over Cork, Kilkenny took 30 shots in open play but only scored 11, this will have to come up to 19 or 20 scores for victory this weekend. English will push the midfield and Colin Coughlan will be asking questions of the half-back line. Now move up the field and Cathal O'Neill is pushing Tom Morrissey and Gearoid Hegarty to be even better again this year because if not he'll take that jersey. Massive kudos has to go to Derek Lyng and co for getting the group to buy into this because I have no doubt they could hear those groans and calls of "will you drive it" as clearly as I could. For Limerick, their path to the final was more straightforward. In the semi final he took 14 shots at goal and scored 1-13. The groans from the stand as Kilkenny tried to work the ball through the lines, were turned over again and again and just beaten in all positions of the field would send shivers down your spine on the line, or as a player and maybe get you to question whether you should just go back to what worked before and drive it in. It's a great sense of pride for so many and some players will feel this for the first time on Sunday. So it's a rematch of the 2022 All-Ireland final, Limerick, the best team in the country, facing the last side to beat them in a knockout championship game. I made a comment that, of the top five teams in the country, four would be from Munster. As a player starting on that journey, it's a magic feeling flicking on the highlights show of a Sunday night and maybe hearing your name mentioned or them showing one of your scores.

Can Kilkenny claim a historic 20th league title? (KCLR Fanzone)

Lets take a look at every time Kilkenny managed to capture the League Crown, with a record setting 20th possibly on the horizon.

Billy Fitzpatrick was the Division 1 top scorer with 4-33 when all was said and done, after Kilkenny won the title after a 2-14 to 2-12 win over Limerick in the final. Two of those have come under the management of John Kiely, who guided the treaty to their first league title since 1997 when he won it in 2019. The 2014 final was an after-extra-time win with TJ Reid getting the winning point in the last minute of extra-time in Semple Stadium. On 6 May 1962, Kilkenny won the title after a 1–16 to 1–8 win over Cork in the final and winning all four of their group games. The legendary Gowran man guided Kilkenny to three league titles in total, along with 14 Leinster titles and seven All Irelands. His last came in 2021 when the title was shared with Galway as no Division 1 League Final had been scheduled, so if the teams meet in the Championship, that would double as a League Final.

April 05: Today's top stories in 60 seconds | IMAGE.ie (image.ie)

From President Joe Biden's upcoming visit to an increase in ISPCA rescues, here is the April 05 news bulletin.

Highest temperatures of 11 to 15 degrees, warmest in the south. The title of Queen Camilla has been used for the first time by Buckingham Palace on invitations for the King’s coronation. In a speech full of laughter and tears, Ardern went through her achievements and reflected on where more work had to be done, particularly on child poverty and climate change calling for MPs to “take the politics out of it”, while acknowledging the “weight” of carrying a country on her shoulders at times. Camilla has been referred to as Queen Consort since the death of Queen Elizabeth II but is named Queen Camilla on the invites, which will soon be sent to more than 2,000 guests. The Irish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ISPCA) has rescued 200 more dogs in the first three months of the year compared to the same period last year. Jacinda Ardern has sent a powerful message that people can be “anxious, sensitive, kind and wear your heart on your sleeve”, while still also leading a country: “Just like me.” Ardern’s valedictory speech on Wednesday capped more than five years as Prime Minister of New Zealand, marked by a series of tragedies in the mosque attacks, Whakaari eruption, Covid-19 pandemic – and Ardern’s globally respected responses to them. In total, 380 dogs have been rescued since the start of this year. Speaking to reporters yesterday, Martin said he “very much welcomes the arrival of the President”. He argued the US justice system had become “lawless” and that the case being taken against him was politically motivated. Gardaí investigating the violent death of a young woman in Limerick were last night looking to trace a man seen entering a shop with a bandaged hand and then washed his hands in the store. A criminal investigation into allegations of sexual abuse within the Defence Forces has been announced by the Garda Commissioner. The man is believed to have put his hand back in the makeshift bandage after washing himself.
