Limerick v Cork: What time, what channel and all you need to know about the Munster SHC final
Limerick and Cork go head-to-head in this weekend's Munster SHC final which will be played at the Gaelic Grounds. Limerick got the better of Cork in their round robin clash and took top spot in the table. Cork will be looking to avenge their defeat in the earlier round. Both sides won two games, drew one and lost one in the round robin. Limerick are going for their seventh Munster title in a row while Cork will be hoping to upset the Treaty's party looking for their first title since 2018. Advertisement Here's everything you need to know. Where and when is it on? The match takes place at TUS Gaelic Grounds in Limerick on Saturday with the throw-in at 6pm. Where can I watch the game? The game will be live on RTÉ 2 with coverage starting at 5.15pm. Team News Damien Cahalane and Diarmuid Healy are the two changes in the announced Cork team to face Limerick in Saturday's Munster SHC final in TUS Gaelic Grounds. Advertisement St Finbarrs man Cahalane comes in for injured Ger Millerick (hand) and Lisgoold's Healy replaces Brian Roche having both come on for them in last Sunday week's final round win over Waterford. Captain Robert Downey and fellow defender Niall O'Leary, who missed that game in SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh with knee and groin injuries respectively, are named on the bench. However, Declan Dalton (hamstring) is not included in the match-day 26. Going out of the squad along with Millerick is Eoin Roche. Fifteen years from his first Munster SHC final, Patrick Horgan is set to feature in his sixth final. For all but him and Seamus Harnedy, it will be a first provincial decider for the Cork attack. From the team that began the 16-point defeat to Limerick last month, there are four named changes, three of them that are injury-related. Twelve of the 15 started last year's All-Ireland semi-final win over Limerick. Advertisement Like Limerick, Cork have four stand-by players to choose from should they wish to make any 11th hour changes. Aidan O'Connor has been introduced to the Limerick team for Saturday's Munster SHC final against Cork. From the team that defeated Cork last month, the Monaleen man is the only change for Shane O'Brien, who is among the 11 players on the bench. O'Connor came off the bench for Kilmallock man O'Brien in the dead rubber game against Clare last Sunday week. The team shows eight changes from the side that lost that game in TUS Gaelic Grounds.

‘It's surreal' – Cork ace Brian Hayes reveals what it's like to hurl with hero Patrick Horgan ahead of Limerick showdown
CORK hitman Brian Hayes says playing alongside Patrick Horgan is a dream. Hayes has lit up 2 PwC GAA/GPA Player of the Month for April in hurling, Brian Hayes of Cork, revealed what it's like to play alongside his hero Patrick Horgan 2 Patrick Horgan and Cork take on Limerick in the Munster SHC this weekend The St. Finbarr's man netted twice in their round 1 But learning from the master has been key. Horgan, turned 37 earlier this month and will go down as one of the all-time greats. Their stalwart fired 1-9 against Tipperary last time out, and age is only a number for the Glen Rovers man. And Hayes admits hurling alongside his hero is beyond his wildest dreams. read more on gaa He said: 'Yeah, I suppose playing next to him, it's very surreal really I suppose. It's class as well. "I suppose watching him growing up, obviously he would have been Cork's main forward from whenever I was supporting the team. 'And now to play with him and to be friends with him off the pitch as well, it's very cool as well in that element of it. 'I suppose from what he's given to me, picking his brain with different scenarios and learning things that he would have come across over the years. Most read in GAA Hurling 'He's very good to pass on information to me with that. I suppose having a good bit of banter with him then, keeping him intact as well in the gym and on the pitch when he's dodging a few things! 'I suppose he needs that as well. I suppose that's the environment we have. Although Patrick's obviously one of the greatest hurlers of all time within our group, he's just another one of us. Owen Mulligan teases Lee Keegan over hilarious contrast in how their inter-county GAA careers ended 'I suppose it's great to be able to have that banter within our group that we can go up against one another before we go up against anyone else really.' And the Cork hype train is in full swing after reaching the final last year, as Clare edged a classic 3-29 1-34 after extra-time. Pat Ryan's men look primed to end their 20-year wait for glory when Hayes was only four years old and his uncle, Ger Cunningham was on the Cork backroom team. Cunningham lifted Liam MacCarthy three times as their number 1, but Hayes is not getting carried away by the current hysteria aeahd of their trip to Limerick. He said: 'My mother and father would have taken me up in 2005 because my Uncle Ger would have been involved in the backroom team that year. 'I suppose we would have obviously gone up in supporting Ger and the Cork team as a family. There's a few photos of us going up in our O2 jerseys up around Jones's Road. 'But I suppose of the day and stuff like that you wouldn't really have too many memories. "I think I remember the homecoming alright on the Monday, briefly. I suppose the match you wouldn't really, I probably wasn't even watching it. 'Any year really that any Cork team goes out, or any team around the country, you want to be winning. I suppose that's the end goal. I'm sure no team has any fear saying that, sure, why else would you do it? 'Obviously, there's the enjoyment of it as well, but the thought of winning and at the end of putting in all the hard work with some of your best friends is obviously something that you dream about. "There's nothing in it between the top teams. I'm sure whoever's there this year, it'll be the same, one- or two-point game. "I suppose for us it was just about coming back and building on that. I think we've done that so far, so hopefully we can keep it going." BRIAN HAYES is the PwC GPA Hurling Player of the Month for April. PwC are proud sponsors of the Player of the Month awards across camogie, hurling, football and ladies football.

The GAA Social Aidan Walsh. Being let go. Winning an All-Ireland, moving to Kerry
Life after inter-county GAA takes a period of time to adjust. When your a Cork hurler and footballer you've dined in two hotels- both five star. Life has now brought Aidan Walsh to West Kerry. He transferred to the home of the O'Se's An Ghaeltacht and life is good. Love can do that sort of thing. A beautiful wee boy (yes-wearing a Kerry jersey) has changed perspective. Living in one of the most beautiful places in Ireland- but he can't speak the language. In this podcast we discuss being dropped at 30, why Aidan struggles to go and watch Cork Hurlers but believes (and hopes) they will win the All-Ireland this year. He also makes Patrick Horgan's hurleys- his is a bit different. It's a great catch-up with an All-Ireland winning footballer, a gifted hurler and a man who is at home in Kerry-but always Cork.
