Niall Moran says nobody in Limerick is getting carried away ahead of the All-Ireland MHC final.

The Treaty County are favourites to acount for Kilkenny in Sunday's curtain-raiser at Croke Park and senior star Moran - who coached many of the current minors at schools level - reckons Limerick are moving in the right direction regardless of this weekend's result:

"It's well known in these parts that underage hurling in Limerick is in a good place with the work that [chairman of the implementation group] Joe McKenna has been doing. There are far better structures in place and there is a plan that is being followed," the Ahane clubman says in The Irish Independent.

"All of the facets are working off each other, which has really benefited what we're trying to do. You can see how the structures have allowed the schools to become more prominent.

"There is a sense of expectation surrounding this Limerick team given their experience, but there is also a massive sense of realism as well.

"Everyone from the players to the management are very grounded. The key for a county like Limerick is to learn from past mistakes and I think we're doing that. We've drawn positives from the negatives."
