The Limerick management team have spent time reviewing their 2025 campaign. "It's going to be a stronger unit and an even better prepared unit," said Kiely about next year's panel.

John Kiely believes Limerick's Munster hurling final penalty shootout defeat to Cork took a toll on his side which resulted in them being knocked out of the All-Ireland championship by Dublin a fortnight later. 

"It was very disappointing how it finished for us," Kiely told Stream Sport during their coverage of the Limerick SHC semi-finals.
