BACK TO BACK Munster senior hurling finals have left the people of Clare with a pep in their step and the mood is certainly optimistic on the latest episode of The Water Break.

Cusack Park was electric as Clare’s senior hurlers defeated Cork by the smallest of margins to seal their place in the provincial final which is to be held on June 11th.

Their opponents will be known in due course but for now Clare can sit back and enjoy the final round of games without having to worry about other results to determine their progress.

Joining us on the latest edition of The Water Break are Darach Honan, himself one of the goal scorers in Clare’s 2013 All-Ireland win over Cork and Michael Murphy, the man who captained Tulla to Clare SHC glory in 2007.

On the Clár:

  • How Cusack Park transformed from a wake to a wedding
  • Working towards ending the Munster SHC drought
  • Potential for David Fitzgerald to reach cult hero status
  • Attacking strengths from defence
  • Adam Hogan a Young Hurler of the Year contender
  • Isolation in attack
