Underdogs Bruree hope to humble fancied ’Well

YOU would have got very long odds at the start of this season on the pairing for tomorrow’s Limerick SHC final, at the Gaelic Grounds.

Patrickswell, perhaps, would have been predictable enough, even if in the last few years they haven’t been the dominant force of old, but Bruree?

They have won one senior title in their long history, and that over 100 years ago? From 1893 in fact, when they campaigned as South Limerick, and local hero Eamonn de Valera was still in short trousers.
