Derek McGrath and Jamie Wall are on form today as they discuss where Limerick’s revival came from, the clinical way Kilkenny went about winning the Leinster final on Saturday evening, and the latest twists and turns as Davy Fitzgerald’s Wexford are out of the championship at the hands of Clare for the second year in a row.
