Limerick’s dual stars return to football panel

Horan revealed he contacted the players to invite them back into the set-up following the hurlers’ All-Ireland quarter-final defeat to Dublin on Sunday night. The pair will train with the panel this week and are available for selection despite rarely featuring for the footballers this year.

“They haven’t played much football, that’s the only thing,” said Horan. “They tried to juggle the commitments this year but couldn’t with injuries and that sort of thing. But they have played plenty of times for Limerick, especially in Munster finals. The experience they have is huge.”
