All-Ireland SHC semi-final special: Limerick-Waterford throw in delayed until 5.30

Semi-final pushed back by 30 minutes to 5.30 pm as a result of a truck shedding its load of round straw bales on the M7

FINAL JOURNEY: Gearóid Hegarty of Limerick arrives for the All-Ireland Senior Championship against Munster rivals and Waterford at Croke Park. 

The GAA have confirmed they put back today's All-Ireland SHC semi-final by half an hour to avoid further accidents.

The throw-in for the Limerick and Waterford game was pushed by 30 minutes to 5.30 pm as a result of a truck shedding its load of round straw bales on the M7 at Junction 9A, Naas. With supporters from both counties using the road to get to Croke Park and being discommoded, the call was announced after 4 pm.
