Since when are the ’Well underdogs?

READY to rock, ready to roll. So go the bulletins from Patrickswell of Limerick and Newtownshandrum of Cork ahead of tomorrow’s AIB Munster club SHC final clash in Thurles.

"No injury worries whatsoever," reported an upbeat 'Well manager, Jim Fawl. "We had a good workout on Tuesday night. Everyone was checked, everyone was cleared. The humour is top-class, they really want this, they have a great belief in themselves."

In the Newtown camp the news wasn't quite so rosy; John McCarthy and wing-forward Donal Mulcahy have serious leg injuries, but manager Patsy Morrissey was positive nevertheless.
