Eddie Brennan: If you don't take your chances against Limerick, it'll bite you in the a**e at some point – and it did

Watching Limerick yesterday reminded me of a line by Tiger Woods. “We all know that out here, everyone's good is good,” he said. “But how good is your bad? That’s the difference.”
With great teams, their bad is still decent. When the stakes are highest, when the pressure is greatest, when your team’s need is strongest, that’s when individual stars step up. Limerick were out of sorts in the first half, yet they went in at half-time down three, which, for Kilkenny folk, was worrying. With the chances Kilkenny had, the way they hurled, they should have been five or six up.
