Meanwhile, Waterford forward Seán Walsh has been handed a one-match suspension for his red card in last Sunday’s defeat to Cork.

Walsh was sent off late on at SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh for “behaving in a way that is dangerous to an opponent” as the Rebels romped to victory.

The Fourmilewater clubman can appeal the decision made at last night’s hearing.

Waterford host Limerick at Walsh Park on Sunday.
