Remember that rule the GAA introduced to punish cynical fouls that prevent goal-scoring opportunities?
The provincial hurling championship brought plenty of drama this weekend, as rivals in Munster and Leinster renewed acquaintances.
Clare kickstarted their Munster Senior Hurling challenge after a second-half turnaround secured their first ever championship victory in SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh, beating Cork 3-26 to 3-24.
All-Ireland champions Limerick got their Munster championship campaign underway with a 3-15 to 1-18 win over Clare in Cusack Park.
A first Munster SHC victory in Ennis since 1990 was Limerick's reward for a remarkable final quarter backlash as the holders stunned Clare into submission in front a capacity 20,055 crowd in Ennis.
Shane McGrath believes Clare are better-placed to challenge Limerick this year, with their supporting cast having grown in confidence by winning the Allianz Hurling league without star man Tony Kelly.

Clare have won their first hurling league title since 2016 this evening. They survived a late fightback from Kilkenny to take the Division 1 crown by 3-16 to 1-20.
