John Meyler reflects on his predictions before the start of the Munster championship where he felt Clare would not progress.

John Meyler has defender his pre-Munster prediction that Clare would not be one of the three teams to progress.

Banner viewers were up in arms when they were picked not to come out, with Meyler explaining his view that it would be โ€œstraightforwardโ€.

โ€œBut you live by your comments, Shane. You asked me for my opinion and I gave it to you, I said: Cork, Tipperary and Limerick.

“Thatโ€™s what I thought honestly at the time when you asked me, maybe three months ago.

โ€œI said to you, and if you go over your video, that Waterford werenโ€™t going great at the time and, look, they lost three games and won one game which really didnโ€™t matter.

โ€œI thought Clare were going poorly and, that was based on that evidence at that point, but I still maintain this morning that Clare have one or two issues that they need to straighten out.

โ€œBut Limerick have one or two issues as well and they need to be straightened out.

“I like Cian Lynch, I think heโ€™s an outstanding player, Iโ€™d like to see him back in there.

โ€œSo Iโ€™m not wrong yet, Shane.โ€
