Munster and Leinster fans look forward to championship clashes

The draws for next year's Munster and Leinster hurling championships were made last night and there are plenty of clashes to whet the appetite of fans in both provinces.

All-Ireland champions Cork and Munster kingpins Waterford will meet in the semi-finals of the Munster championship in a repeat of this year's final, while Limerick and Tipperary play each other in a preliminary round tie. The winners will meet Anthony Daly's Clare in the other semi-final.
