Darragh O’Donovan, Aaron Gillane to miss out for Limerick
O’Donovan, at centre-forward in Limerick’s opening two hurling league victories, broke his finger during an in-house game on Saturday and faces a number of weeks out.
Gillane, meanwhile, had been posting double-digit tallies for county and college (Mary I) in recent weeks and his absence is ill-timed for a game manager John Kiely has described as “massive”. The forward went over on his ankle towards the end of the win over Offaly, a game where he finished with 1-8, and while the Patrickswell forward is no longer in a medical boot, Kiely reckons the Dublin fixture may come too soon.
