LIMERICK WILL CALL upon the county’s goalkeeper in the 2007 All-Ireland senior hurling final for their Munster intermediate hurling clash against Clare on Sunday.
Brian Murray has been named between the posts by manager Don Flynn for the quarter-final that is the curtain-raiser to Sunday’s senior showdown.
Four current Limerick U21′s are named in the starting side with Sean Finn named at right corner-back, Barry O’Connell selected at full-back, Diarmuid Byrnes picked at centre-back and Kevin O’Brien set to play at half-forward.
O’Brien won a Fitzgibbon Cup medal this year with UL as did fellow wing-forward Mark Carmody and sub goalkeeper David McCarthy.
Finn and substitute Colin Ryan were both members of last year’s Limerick minor side that reached the All-Ireland final while Richard English and Darragh O’Donovan were part of the victorious Munster minor side in 2013.

Not like davy to be dramatic !!!
If you had a son and he was hit in the throat by one of those snowballs…..
As big as anything he has ever done,calm down a small bit Davy,so winning the all Ireland and winning two fitz gibbon titles is on par with winning a quarter final tie??
yeah in terms of being unexpexted and of people saying they hadn’t a chance and of difficulty im pretty sure he didnt mean in terms of prestige
Davy is going to need a bigger Tank for all these little fish he has.
Is anybody else sick and tired of hearing about Davy’s every uttering ….
Will someone somewhere please give lickle Davy a chance , even a snowballs chance?
If Davy was chocolate he would eat himself
Mini mars bar id say
