Limerick football boss Mikey Ned O'Sullivan introduces two championship newcomers for Sunday's meeting with Clare in the opening round of the Munster SFC at Páirc na nGael, throw-in at 3.30pm.

They are corner-back Shane Gallagher and wing back Andrew Lane. Both were regular members of the Limerick XV during the NFL campaign.

Team captain Muiris Gavin failed to pass a fitness test last evening, though he is included in the substitutes, as is his Monaleen clubmate Eoin Keating.

Johnny Murphy returns after injury and is named at full-forward.
