Limerick are down four of the side that started the 12-point win over Dublin due to college commitments ahead of their trip to Cushendall this weekend.

Sean Finn, Tom Morrissey, Gearoid Hegarty and Barry Murphy have been omitted from John Kiely's squad to face Antrim on Sunday as they prepare to line out for UL in the Fitzgibbon Cup final against DCU in Mallow 24 hours earlier.

The quartet make way as part of six changes with their places going to Tom Condon, Colin Ryan, Barry O'Connell and Graeme Mulcahy.

Kiely has given first league starts of 2018 to Barry Hennessy in goal and Richie McCarthy at full-back at the expense of Nickie Quaid and Seamus Hickey, respectively.

Limerick (Allianz HL v Antrim): Barry Hennessy; Tom Condon, Richie McCarthy, Richie English; Diarmaid Byrnes, Declan Hannon, Dan Morrissey; Paul Browne, Colin Ryan; David Reidy, Cian Lynch, Barry O'Connell; Aaron Gillane, Seamus Flanagan, Graeme Mulcahy.
