LAST UPDATE | 9 Jun 2023

CONOR CLEARY HAS been named to start for Clare in the Munster SHC final against Limerick this weekend, after he was withdrawn from the Cork clash with a shoulder injury.

Cleary was taken off in the first half of that meeting with what appeared to be a serious injury, but has been named to start at full-back for the showdown with Limerick on Sunday afternoon [throw-in, 1.45].

Clare manager Brian Lohan has elected to stick with the same team that started in that victory over Cork, with Eibhear Quilligan slotting in between the sticks.

David Fitzgerald and Cathal Malone have been named to start at midfield while Ryan Taylor, Shane O’Donnell and Mark Rodgers will combine in the full-forward line.

Meanwhile, Limerick have also announced their team for the provincial final at the Gaelic Grounds. John Kiely has also opted to go with an unchanged side, as Limerick aim to complete a Munster five-in-a-row.
