Limerick IFC Semi Final Preview: St Senans v Claughaun

The final line up in the Limerick Intermediate Championship will be complete tonight when St Senans take on Claughaun in Caherdavin.

St Senans will be looking for immediate promotion after being relegated from the SFC in 2019 where they failed to pick up a solitary win. Claughaun on the other hand will be looking to go one better than last year when they lost to Gerald Griffins in the semi-finals.

These sides met twice in the 2017 championship with the West side coming out on top on both occasions, one being the semi-final as Senans earned promotion to the Senior Ranks. They won the first round group game 1-11 to 1-9 before winning out 4-12 to 2-6 in the semis.

Claughaun are looking to appear in a third IFC since their relegation from the Senior ranks in 2010. They lost finals in 2012 to Pallasgreen and Oola in 2015. St Senans will be hopeful of booking a place in a fourth Intermediate final since 2014. They lost to Na Piarsaigh in 2014 before falling to Adare two years later. They overcame Galbally in the 2017 decider.

St Senans will enter the game as favourites but there shouldn’t be more than a kick of the ball between the teams.

The prize for the winners is a meeting with Gerald Griffins in the final after they beat Mungret St Pauls in the other semi-final on Sunday afternoon.

Griffins lost out in the final in a replay against Galtee Gaels 12 months ago.
