Team news: Clare host Tipperary in Munster derby on Saturday afternoon

SATURDAY – Clare (H) v Tipperary, 2.00pm, Doonbeg GAA, (S Curley, Galway)     

 

Tipperary make the trip to Doonbeg with sadness in their hearts after former player Rachel Kenneally was laid to rest on Thursday.

Rachel’s untimely passing, following a brave battle with cancer, puts football into perspective but the Premier County will be anxious to honour her memory with a positive performance.

Under Shane Ronayne’s guidance, Tipp boast a 100 per cent record in the second tier but opponents Clare have provided stiff opposition in recent times, particularly in championship fare.

Clare could do with the points, too, as they’ve collected just one victory from five outings so far this season, that sole win coming on the opening day.
