The Leinster Championship has rarely felt more incidental to the All-Ireland race, but can exciting Offaly talent Adam Screeney light it up as he is exposed to top tier hurling for the first time?

The article discusses the prospects of Limerick's hurling team achieving a historic five-in-a-row All-Ireland titles in 2025, a feat that has eluded previous teams. It highlights the challenges faced by teams attempting this, referencing historical examples like Cork in the 1940s and Kilkenny in the 2000s, who fell short after winning four consecutive titles. The piece also touches on Clare's attempt to secure back-to-back titles, a goal they have not achieved since 1997-1998. Key points include the psychological and physical toll on players, the impact of retirements, and the strategic adjustments needed to maintain dominance. Additionally, it mentions the upcoming changes in the championship format and how these might influence team performances.
