Arron Graffin believes Antrim are capable of taking Limerick's scalp in Ballycastle on Sunday.

The Treaty County won the corresponding game in the Gaelic Grounds last year 3-26 to 0-12, but Antrim's plucky performance in last weekend's Allianz League Division 1B opener would suggest they will be a different proposition this time around.

"If you watch the DVD of that (last year's) game, you can see how they out-muscled us," the Cushendall defender tells the Irish News.

"That's one area that we want to improve on. Limerick have a great panel, they've been in the All-Ireland semi-finals the last two years and they have some great players.

"But that's the challenge you set for yourself and we're looking forward to it. You want to play against the best and Limerick are definitely up there.

"We're definitely going into the game confident and we'd like to get a home win up in Ballycastle - that would really kick us off in the league."
