Galway manager Henry Shefflin is sweating over the fitness of centre-back Gearóid McInerney ahead of their All-Ireland semi-final showdown against Limerick on Sunday week.
The 31-year old limped off in the opening half of Galway’s 2-19 to 1-21 quarter-final win over Cork in Thurles on Saturday with a knee injury and he now faces a race against time to be fit for the clash against the All-Ireland champions.
Shefflin said that while initial prognosis confirmed the Oranmore-Maree clubman did not require surgery, it will probably be next week before it’s known if the former All Star will be fit, but he regards him as ‘a serious doubt’.
