CLARE have seven of last years All-Ireland-winning panel to choose from, most notably last season’s player of the year, Darach Honan.

Clare dismissed their neighbours at the same stage last year with 15 points to spare. The likelihood is the winning margin will not be as wide this time out but the victors should be the same.

LIMERICK: B Hennessey, B Cleary, P Begley, C Hayes, Padraig O'Brien, P O'Loughlin, N Quaid, T O'Brien, P Browne, James O'Brien, C Madden, D Hannon, M. Kiely, S Tobin, G Mulcahy.

CLARE: TBA.
