Limerick name side to face Waterford in Munster Senior Hurling Championship

JOHN Kiely and his management team have announced the Limerick team that will face Waterford in the final round of the Munster Senior Hurling Championship round-robin series on Sunday May 26 at 4pm in the TUS Gaelic Grounds. 

The Shannonsiders have made one change from the team that was defeated to Cork with Mike Casey returning from injury to replace the injured Sean Finn.

It is an essentially a do-or-die game for both sides this weekend. 

The permutations heading into the final round of Munster senior hurling championship games this weekend will ensure the identity of the three sides to advance in the championship.

The game will be live from Limerick on RTE2 TV at 4pm, while Clare make the trip to Thurles to face Tipperary at the same time on Sunday.

A win or draw for Limerick will secure their place into the Munster final and the All-Ireland series.
