New Limerick senior hurling manager will come from inside the county

One Limerick panellist suggested that current Clare coach Donal Óg Cusack withdrew from the race over the weekend.

Limerick GAA chiefs could unveil the county’s new senior hurling team manager this evening – with local contenders Shane O’Neill and John Kiely heavily linked with the post, writes Jackie Cahill.

The rumour mill was in overdrive on Shannonside yesterday as O’Neill emerged as the most likely nominee to succeed TJ Ryan, before Kiely’s name entered the frame.
