Limerick make six changes

Limerick have made six changes ahead of their Guinness Munster Hurling Championship semi-final clash with Tipperary at Pairc Uí Chaoimh on Sunday.

Limerick lost out to the eventual All-Ireland champions in last year's provincial decider and Eamon Cregan's men show six changes from that game.

However, Peter Lawlor is the only championship newcomer to the side, with Joe Quaid, Damian Reale, Steven Lucey, Owen O'Neill and Mark Keane back in the team.
