Amid the huge hurling matches that are coming up this weekend, some key match-ups may go a long way to deciding the results.
Limerick v Cork, TUS Gaelic Grounds, Sunday 4pm
Darragh Fitzgibbon v Declan Hannon
Should Fitzgibbon get himself in positions to run at Hannon throughout this do-or-die clash at the Gaelic Grounds, it will be a sure sign that Cork are troubling Limerick.
Without question, Hannon looked rather human for much of last Sundayโs draw with Tipperary โ mixing both the good and the bad throughout, ranging from positive forward drives to simple mistakes.
Tipperaryโs high-pressure game forced the Treaty into plenty of errors and their defence did show signs of creaking.
Should that happen this time, there are few better ball-carriers in the game to profit than Fitzgibbon.
Brilliant against Waterford, poor at home to Tipp, and good at times in Ennis, this could be day to announce himself as a true leader of the Rebels.
Should Hannon cruise about the pitch and dictate play for much of the afternoon, it will be Limerickโs day.
