Limerick have improved from where they were last year and the forced reshaping of their defence has not in any way lessened the county’s All-Ireland credentials, according to former Treaty hurler Stephen McDonagh.

Limerick are this Sunday seeking to string together back-to-back Munster titles for the first time since 1981, with McDonagh confident John Kiely’s side will emerge victorious against Waterford.
