Fears for Kyle Hayes as injury could be worse than first thought
There's been growing concerns for Limerick Senior Hurler Kyle Hayes after he was hospitalised in a club match on Friday night.
The five-time All-Ireland winner was on the receiving end of a high hit from Newcastle West fullback Maurice Murphy just 17 minutes into Kildimo-Pallaskenry's 2-16 to 2-16 draw with Newcastle West in the Limerick Club County Championship.

While Hayes was unable to return to the field he was able to watch on from the sidelines on his feet. However, he was taken to the hospital that evening for an MRI scan.
While it was reported that he had suffered a concussion, Hayes was also reportedly treated for a back injury while at University Hospital Limerick.
Tipperary fans and all hurling fans in general, will be keeping a close eye on Limerick SHC updates as five-time All-Star Kyle Hayes suffered a serious back injury in Friday's clash between Kildimo-Pallaskenry and Newcastle West.
Best wishes to Kyle on a full and speedy…
