Mike Casey will make his first start in a Limerick jersey in two years when he lines out against Offaly in tomorrow's Allianz Hurling League Division 1A clash at the TUS Gaelic Grounds.

With his last appearance for the Treaty County coming in a league meeting against Waterford in March 2020 before suffering a run of bad luck with knee injuries, Na Piarsaigh man Casey lines out in a full-back line flanked by the returning Sean Finn and Barry Nash.

Declan Hannon captains the side from centre-back in a side which shows four changes from the 0-18 apiece draw with Clare.

Debutant Oisin O'Reilly and Graeme Mulcahy - who makes his first league start of the campaign - come into the inside forward line.

Making way are Richie English, Colin Coughlan, William O'Donoghue and Adam English.

Throw-in is at 1.45pm.

Limerick (SH v Offaly): Nickie Quaid; Sean Finn, Mike Casey, Barry Nash; Diarmaid Byrnes, Declan Hannon, Dan Morrissey; Cathal O’Neill, Darragh O’Donovan; Gearoid Hegarty, Cian Lynch, Tom Morrissey; Oisín O’Reilly, Aaron Gillane, Graeme Mulcahy.

Subs: Barry Hennessy, Ciaran Barry, Conor Boylan, Aaron Costello, Colin Coughlan, Adam English, Richie English, Robbie Hanley, Brian O’Grady, David Reidy, Pat Ryan.
