Limerick talisman Aaron Gillane insists that his fifth consecutive Munster hurling title means just as much as his first, after he helped his county to the narrowest of wins over Clare in the Gaelic Grounds.
Limerick held off Clare by the skin of their teeth to claim a first ever Munster SHC five in a row.

Clare captain Tony Kelly (0-06, 2fs) levelled but Limerick, cheered on by the locals at a Gaelic Grounds split in colour, scored the next five points in a ten-minute period to take control.
