Sars and Toomevara hit by injuries ahead of Tipp final

TOOMEVARA and Thurles Sarsfields have major injury worries for Sunday’s Tipperary SHC final.

Francis Devaney (Toome) broke a bone in his hand in training, while Brendan Carroll (Sars), who missed the semi-final win over Nenagh with a similar injury, has only resumed light training.

Toome are also worried about inter-county star Tomás Dunne whose ankle injury is slow responding to treatment. His inter-county colleague Lar Corbett, who also missed out in the semi-final against Nenagh, continues to be troubled with a hamstring injury and is given little chance of playing.
