McGrath looks set to miss clash with Lismore

REIGNING Waterford hurling champions, Mount Sion will almost certainly be without Allstar Ken McGrath for tomorrow’s mouthwatering county semi-final with arch rivals Lismore at Dungarvan (3.30pm).

With both semi-finals forming a double-header - Ballygunner take on surprise package Fourmilewater in the other - the fans are expected to turn out in their thousands in expectation of two cracking contests.

McGrath hasn’t played since picking up a knee ligament injury in the first round game against Ardmore almost three months ago, and while he has been having regular treatment since, a Mount Sion spokesman said yesterday he has little or no chance of featuring in their starting line up on Sunday.
