Contents
Bulfin joined the team during the 2003 National League and was second choice goalkeeper until he left the panel after the 2009 championship. He enjoyed little success in the senior grade and was an unused substitute in Limerick's All-Ireland final defeat in 2007. Bulfin started two games during the 2008 National Hirling League and impressed during defeats away to Tipperary and home to Galway. He received praise for both performances from both local and national media. He made spectacular saves on both games and Limerick would have been defeated by a lot more only for him
