City gripped by hurling final fever

MUNSTER final fever has gripped Limerick in a way that is challenging the hype of last year’s Heineken Cup win, with a massive demand for tickets.

It’s 11 years since Limerick won a Munster senior hurling title and you’d know it in the city and county this week ahead of Sunday’s showdown with Waterford.

Inspirational Limerick forward Ollie Moran intended yesterday to take time out from the build up as he was brought on board to announce the frequencies for the region’s new music radio station, SPIN South West.
