O'Grady poised for Limerick role

Donal O'Grady is in line to be named Limerick's new senior hurling manager, as the Shannonsiders bring to an end their two-month search to find a successor to Justin McCarthy.

It is understood that the former Cork boss, who guided the Rebels to All-Ireland glory in 2004, will be the only name put forward for the position at a meeting of the Limerick GAA Executive in the Gaelic Grounds tonight.
