A euphoric Shane O'Neill says Na Piarsaigh's success since 2011 has surpassed his wildest expectations.

The Caherdavin men have won four Limerick and four Munster club SHC titles in that time as well as an All-Ireland title in 2016. Yesterday, they maintained their remarkable unbeaten record in Munster, which now extends to 11 games, by repeating the 2015 final victory over Ballygunner.

"Winning four Munster club titles, it's a phenomenal achievement. The only other club we're behind now is Blackrock, who are one of the greatest teams ever to play, be it at county or club level. For our guys to be only one behind them and to win as much as we've won since 2011 just shows how ambitious they are," the Na Piarsaigh manager is quoted as saying in the Irish Independent.

"It's more than pinching ourselves we have to do! Up to 2011 we were trying so hard just to break through in the county but what has happened over the last six or seven years, it's crazy really."
