Cork reached a seventh consecutive EirGrid Munster U21FC final in a row at Páirc Uí Rinn on Wednesday night, but got a tough test from Limerick.

Donal O'Grady will return from injury to captain Limerick in Sunday's Munster SHC semi-final against Tipperary at the Gaelic Grounds (throw-in 4pm).

An ugly row is developing in Limerick after divisional club Emmets started with just 13 players in their championship game against Adare on Sunday.

THESE are confusing times in Limerick hurling circles.

CHAMPIONS Adare eased to a Limerick SHC first round win when defeating Knockainey, 3-14 to 0-9.
