Murphy and O'Dwyer to ref hurling finals

July 13, 2021

Referee's Paud O'Dwyer and Johnny Murphy

Johnny Murphy of Limerick and Carlow's Paud O'Dwyer will take charge of this weekend's senior provincial hurling finals.

Ballylanders clubman Murphy will handle Saturday evening's Leinster SHC decider between Kilkenny and Dublin at Croke Park, while O'Dwyer will be the 'man in the middle' for the Sunday's Munster SHC final between Limerick and Tipperary at Pairc Ui Chaoimh. The Wexford native also refereed Limerick's semi-final victory over Cork a couple of weeks ago.

Former Limerick footballer Murphy's last big assignment was the Leinster SHC semi-final between Dublin and Galway.

Meanwhile, Tipperary's Fergal Horgan has been chosen as the ref for Saturday's big All-Ireland SHC qualifier between Wexford and Clare at Thurles.
