Ballygunner gear up for Munster Club Senior hurling semi-final

Ballygunner gear up for Munster Club Senior hurling semi-final

Ballygunner return to action for the eighth successive weekend as they face Sixmilebridge in this afternoon's eagerly awaited Munster Club Senior hurling semi-final.

The Gunners had two points to spare, overcoming a highly fancied Thurles Sarsfields last weekend in a thrilling Quarter-Final encounter by 1-21 to 1-19 after extra-time.

Sixmile claimed their third Clare title in 5 seasons as they overcame Cloney-Quinn after a replay.

Ballygunner manager Fergal Hartley says he's under no illusions as to the challenge the Clare champions will pose.

He says Sixemile showed great character to win the Clare title, which should give them huge confidence ahead this afternoon's encounter.

The action is underway at 2pm in Walsh Park and will be broadcast live on WLR, commentary team Kieran O' Connor and Dan Shanahan, thanks to George Corbett Skoda.
