BARRY Murphy of Doon has been named as captain of the Limerick side for Sunday’s Munster Senior Hurling League tilt with Cork at Mick Neville Park, Rathkeale which will now take place at the new time of 1pm.
Limerick GAA confirmed the new throw-in time in a statement this afternoon, seeing the third change to the fixture, having been rescheduled twice so far already.
Murphy has been chosen at mid-field, along with Colin Coughlan of Ballybrown.
It’s a team that differs from the one initially announced for the planned mid-week fixture between the counties.
Interestingly, several players who featured in colleges action earlier in the week are included.
A draw will suffice for Limerick to qualify for a final meeting with Waterford.
Limerick: David McCarthy (Glenroe); Ronan Lyons (Monaleen), Fergal O’Connor (Effin), Aaron Costello (Kilmallock); Ethan Hurley (Newcastle West), Ronan Connolly (Adare), Ciarán Barry (Ahane); Barry Murphy, captain, (Doon), Colin Coughlan (Ballybrown); Micheál Houlihan (Kilmallock), Aidan O’Connor (Ballybrown), Conor Boylan (Na Piarsaigh); Adam English (Doon), Shane O’Brien (Kilmallock), Oisin O’Reilly (Kilmallock).
Substitutes: Jamie Power (Monaleen), Donal Coughlan (Doon), Joe Fitzgerald (Monaleen), David Fitzgerald (Kildimo-Pallaskenry), Luke Flynn (Granagh-Ballingarry), Mike Keane (Adare), Darragh Langan (Monaleen), Liam Lynch (Mungret St Paul’s), Donnacha Ó Dálaigh (Monaleen), Paddy O’Donovan (Effin), Evan O’Leary (Ahane).
