More ridiculous, unnecessary messing with team selection leaves us in the dark regarding Liam "Baker" Bradley's Antrim line-up.

Buying a programme is a waste of money in Limerick as it will show eight changes from the 15 that Donegal beat 3-16 to 0-12 on June 22nd.

“That actually isn’t the team,” said Bradley. “We had to submit a team for the programme and that probably shouldn’t have been released.”

Human error can happen but it does indicate a deeper rooted organisational problem for GAA headquarters.

Donegal brushed them aside in Ulster, and while Limerick were well beaten by Tipperary, there is enough about them – with John Galvin, Ian Ryan and fit again captain Seánie Buckley on show – to win at home.

Then again, there has to be more to Antrim than what we saw the last day and Limerick are not the force they threatened to be a few years ago when Galvin was in his prime. However, to stumble now would require a performance below their expected standard.

Whichever side progresses, they still look like qualifier fodder.
