CLARE and Limerick have named their starting fifteen for Sunday’s Munster SHC final.

Brian Lohan and his management have made two changes as per the named side with Rory Hayes and David McInerney introduced for Conor Leen and Cian Galvin. The absence of Tony Kelly from the announced fifteen is a surprise.

Positional switches from the named Clare side are guaranteed with the possibility of late changes in personnel.

John Kiely and his management have handed a first championship start to Kilmallock’s Shane O’Brien, he enters the side at corner forward in the absence of the injured Seamus Flanagan.

They welcome back Darragh O’Donovan and Richie English to the matchday panel for the first time in this year’s championship but injury keeps four-time All Star Seán Finn out of action.
