Diarmaid Byrnes expressed his annoyance at a narrative in the media that his Limerick side have had a dip in form in this year's championship campaign.

Speaking after the one-point win over Cork at the Gaelic Grounds, a victory that sets up a Munster final bout with old-rivals Clare, Byrnes said it is not in their interest to listen to voices from outside their own camp.
