Newcastle West set for Tralee trip with Austin Stacks winning home advantage for Munster SF

Newcastle West beat the Nire at the weekend to book their place in the Munster semi-finals.

Austin Stacks will have home advantage when they face Newcastle West in the Munster Club SFC semi-final on December 19.

The game was initially fixed for a Limerick OR Kerry venue with the Tralee outfit winning a coin toss on Monday evening.

The fixture will throw in at 1.30pm in Austin Stack Park.

The game will be played in the same venue where the Black and Gold outfit defeated their Tralee neighbours Kerins O’Rahillys in the Kerry final on Sunday.

Newcastle West also had home advantage when they beat the Nire in the provincial quarter-final.

Interestingly, Stacks were at home in their previous Munster semi-final as they beat Ballincolig in the 2014 championship before going on to claim provincial honours.

Newcastle West, in their fifth ever venture into the Munster championship will be seeking a second final berth, reaching the decider on their first attempt in 1987.
