McGrath likely to be fit for Toome game

FEARS that Mount Sion centre-forward Eoin McGrath fractured a thumb in Sunday’s Munster Club championship semi-final victory over Kilmaley have been allayed.

Club officials are confident he will be fit to play against Toomevara in Sunday week's final.

"The first medical prognosis is that Eoin has dislocated the thumb, but he is set to have a second examination later today," a club spokesman said yesterday. "However, we are hopeful it's not a fracture and that must increase his chances of being fit for the final."
