Daly names strong Clare side for Munster opener

Clare boss Anthony Daly has named a strong side to face Waterford in Sunday's Munster SHC opener in Thurles.

Daly recalls veteran keeper Davy Fitzgerald after suspension and includes injury doubt Brian Lohan at full-back and Frank Lohan at full forward.

The absence of Ger O'Grady in defence is a surprise while James O'Connor is also on the bench.

Clare (SHC v Waterford): D Fitzgerald; B Quinn, B Lohan, B O'Connell; C Plunkett, S McMahon, G Quinn; O Baker, D McMahon; T Griffin, C Lynch, A Markham; N Gilligan, F Lohan, D Forde.
