The All-Ireland champions eked out another win and will enjoy the four weeks off - but they may not fancy meeting the Banner again

There’s none of that around today. Nobody is saying that a month’s break is anything other than good news for Limerick and Kilkenny. John Kiely immediately pounced on it as precisely what Cian Lynch needs to get back to himself. Derek Lyng had to go hunting without four of his starters yesterday and needs every minute between now and July 9th to see what he can do about getting them up and running again.
But if experience is the name we give to our mistakes, Clare at least have the roadmap splayed out in front of them and an intimate knowledge of the boreens and byways to avoid in the coming weeks. They can’t let another Munster final defeat – their fourth in seven seasons – define their year. They can’t arrive mentally drained into an All-Ireland semi-final and get blitzed again.
