Corbett likely to miss Limerick showdown, admits O’Shea

Tipperary manager Eamon O’Shea concedes Lar Corbett is facing a race against time to be fit to start Sunday week’s Munster semi-final against Limerick.

O’Shea last night described his chances of playing as “unlikely” as he has yet to return to full contact training after sustaining fractured ribs in the Division 1 final defeat to Kilkenny earlier this month.

“Larry is the only one who’s not training. It’s very difficult because it’s a rib, you just don’t know (when he’ll be okay) because at the moment he’s had no physical contact.
