Clare must play the game not the man

To give an idea of just how glaring Clare’s concession of 15 pointed frees (24 in total) was on Saturday night, it’s one less than the placed balls that have been scored against Limerick across the first three rounds.

In total, Clare have coughed up a total of 1-32 from frees and penalties in their games against Tipperary, Kilkenny, and Cork.
