Green goals flow to dump out Déise

THE GREENS aren’t just in cabinet.

Expect Limerick to empty on the first Sunday of September as the county’s hurling fans converge on Croke Park for an All-Ireland final date with Kilkenny, having beaten Waterford 5-11 to 2-15 yesterday.

The omens were bad for Waterford: the weekend began with the death of Déise hurling legend Tom Cheasty, for whom a minute’s silence was observed yesterday.
