    Really hope Mark Ellis and Damien Cahalane are fully fit. It’s a risk going with doubts over two of the half back line.
    Cahalane’s injury was avoidable, it was down to blunder by the medical tram looking after Ruari Deane during the football final

    Cork’s line is the one to watch, Horgan & Cadogan playing very well & Cronin is well overdue a good game. Limerick full back line is strong but they’ll need to be at their best to contain Horgan & co.
