Where does Sunday’s Limerick-Clare classic rank among the great Munster finals?
With extra time required to separate sides that were level on 15 occasions and Clare pushing Limerick, one of the greatest teams in any era, right to the brink amid almost unbearable tension in a packed Semple Stadium, it certainly ticks most of the boxes.
But recency bias can cloud the mind too and so it’s instructive to remind ourselves of some of the great finals that have gone before.
