Bitter blow for Limerick as Galvin out for the season

Limerick's talismanic midfielder John Galvin has suffered cruciate knee ligament damage and will miss the rest of the season.

Galvin was one of the leading centre-fielders in the country last year. He was the driving force for Limerick in their Munster SFC final clash with Kerry, scoring a well-taken 1-02 and earning an All-Star nomination by the end of the campaign.
