BRUFF'S junior B hurlers will be looking to reach the All-Ireland final when they play St Martin's of Kilkenny in the club semi-final at Raheenagh this Saturday.

The south Limerick outfit have reached the last four of the competition after winning the Munster decider against Thurles Sarsfields two weeks ago.

Bruff needed to come from behind in that game having led by a point at half time. Sars had an excellent start to the second half with former Tipperary star Ger 'Redser' O'Grady scoring 1-1 when the game resumed.

However, Bruff rallied with David Browne scoring the last four points to give them a 0-10 to 1-6 win a provincial title. Browne scored 0-8 overall in the Munster final and Bruff will be hopeful that the tricky corner forward can fire them to an All-Ireland final spot.

Throw in at Killeedy GAA on Saturday is 2pm.
