Munster football final set for Ennis after coin toss

Cusack Park confirmed to host its first Munster football final since 1919.

CLARE WILL HAVE home advantage for their Munster senior football championship final against Kerry next week.

A toss for venue took place on Tuesday evening, with Munster GAA later confirming that the game will take place in Cusack Park.

It is the first time since 1919 that the Ennis venue will host the provincial decider, with throw-in set for 1.45pm on Sunday 5 May.

The final sees a repeat of last year’s decider, which Kerry won 5-14 to 0-15 in Limerick’s Gaelic Grounds.

    Something not right with them this year. There’s almost too many players. No idea.

    @Peter Brophy: I think the problem is that Leo is rotating his players too much. He needs a consistent core group of players so that when the internationals come back into the side, it won’t be such a jump. Having said that, it’s worrying that Leinster haven’t had a single good performance this season and they’re only a game away from their first Championship Cup fixture.

    A lot of credit must go to how Edinburgh approached the match and made things difficult for Leinster. Reduced to some aimless kicking or loose running, it was up to Leinster to think their way out of it. No trophies won in September so move on to the next one and take the 4 points and them taking nothing.

    This team will get much better. They just need to reintegrate all the big names. It was like their first day at school last night…. no need to panic

    He brushed over the lineout issue.
    A couple of missed calls? How can there possible be a missed call? The pack huddle, make a call and then the prop tells this call to the hooker. Unless either the prop or the hooker doesn’t speak or understand English someone please tell me how they could get the call wrong.

    @Paul O’Connor: And yet they look like AIL players. And you can ask why. And the answe is they all think they are the dogs bollo&, but it is high time they earned their wages. They are overpaid, overhyped, muck
