Banner sweat on banned Donnelly
Star forward Rory Donnelly, who was sent off in a National League game against London and subsequently received a three-month suspension, will have his appeal against the sentence heard in Croke Park tonight.
If Donnelly is acquitted, he will take his place at right-corner forward for next Sunday’s local derby. Limerick boss Mickey Ned O’Sullivan introduces two championship newcomers for Sunday’s meeting of the great rivals. They are corner back Shane Gallagher and wing back Andrew Lane, both regulars during the league campaign.
