SEÁN FINN IS set to make his first start of the 2024 season for Limerick this weekend almost a year after suffering a torn ACL.

Finn has been selected to start at full-back in Limerick’s Division 1 semi-final against Kilkenny as John Kiely makes seven changes to the side who will line out in Páirc Uí Chaoimh on Saturday afternoon [throw-in, 4.30pm].

Finn suffered the long-term knee injury for the second time in his career during Limerick’s Munster SHC meeting against Clare last year. Aaron Costello, Diarmaid Byrnes, William O’Donoghue, Gearoid Hegarty, Donnacha Ó Dáilaigh and Peter Casey have also been drafted in for the meeting with the Cats.

John Kiely and his management team has announced their Limerick Senior hurling team and match panel for their Allianz Hurling League Semi Final:
