JOHN KIELY AND Paul Kinnerk have committed to a new two-year term in charge of the Limerick senior hurlers.
Kiely and Kinnerk have enjoyed a hugely successful managerial-coaching partnership, guiding Limerick to five All-Ireland senior huring titles.
They completed six-in-a-row this season in Munster with a final win over Clare, but were knocked out by Cork at the All-Ireland semi-final stage.
Limerick GAA confirmed last night in a statement that Kiely and Kinnerk were appointed for a new two-year term.

“Following a county board monthly meeting this evening at the Woodlands House Hotel, John Kiely and Paul Kinnerk were appointed for a two-year term with the Limerick senior hurling team, with the Limerick senior hurling backroom team will be announced shortly.”
The pair have been joined in recent times by Alan Cunningham, Aonghus O’Brien, Donal O’Grady and John Flavin on the management team.
They are one of the greatest management duos in the history of the GAA. 5 All-Irelands and 6 Munster titles is just incredible really, considering the task they faced when they took over. Their reappointment is ominous news for the rest of the hurling world, in my opinion.
@Aidan Farrell: Even as a cork man i agree first time for everything
Hopefully they have the cojones not to call up Kyle Hayes.
@zoncolan: why? should everyone with a conviction be banned from taking part in sports?
@Niall English: Cantona was banned for 8 months for assault.
@zoncolan: May not get a choice in the matter…
@zoncolan: hope you have lived a perfect life
@zoncolan: but Hayes will be a cost saving for the county board since they won’t have to pay him mileage expenses! Unless of course they agree to pay him taxis all the time
@zoncolan: a brilliant hurling name zoncolan
@Michael Kennedy: I suppose if he was driving 155km/h around your locality with your family out and about you would condone it because he plays GAA.
@Tony McGrath: Sorry Tony i forgot irish people put their head in the sand when a county star assaults 2 people and drives a car at 155km/h.
@Niall English: I hope not, he’s always liable to get sent off.
@zoncolan: Do you live in the centre of a motorway?
@Mistral: So when you sit down to watch the six oclock news and you go its awful sad about that person that got knocked down and killed and then you come on here and dont condone that type of behaviour. Capable of driving 155km/h on a motorway capable of driving at that speed anywhere. Delusional.
@zoncolan: if kyle hayes doesnt play for limetick it reduces their chance of winning all ireland by 20% at least.
@Sean: Thats all that matters Sean. Limerick winning the all ireland. Drop all charges and give him a pat on the back.
@zoncolan: this is a sports app, not a platform for anonymous persons like yourself to preach from your high moral ground. I don’t condone any illegal actions by anyone.
@zoncolan:
Assaulted 2 people? He was cleared of the assault charge but don’t let that get in the way of your argument
Wonder how much they are getting paid. Leaving a job to go full-time and all
