The Tribesmen take on the Treaty County in the hurling showdown on Sunday and these pictures taken at Henry Street station in Limerick are the perfect example of how work relations are being put to one side ahead of the big game.

Chief Supt Roche is described as a ‘proud Galwayman’ in a Limerick station and you’d have to feel for him with the dotey maroon and white flag above his head amid all the green.

We await their response and most importantly, we’ll wait and see who’s smiling on Monday morning.
