Injury concern for Limerick star Casey; Galway final replay details confirmed

LIMERICK ALL-IRELAND winning hurling defender Mike Casey has suffered another injury setback as he limped off in the closing stages of yesterday’s Munster club hurling semi-final at the Gaelic Grounds.Casey was in action for Na Piarsaigh in a game where the Limerick champions ultimately lost out by five points to All-Ireland kingpins Ballygunner.

Casey was holding his right knee before being forced to withdraw and the full extent of the injury is unknown for a player who has endured his share of bad luck in recent times with knee issues.In October 2020 Casey tore his cruciate in a challenge game against Galway, just before Limerick were about to start their championship campaign after a Covid-enforced delay.

He underwent surgery in mid-November that year before his hopes of a comeback were interrupted the following summer by damage he suffered to his knee cartilage in a club game.
