GAA: Conal Keaney will miss the remainder of the hurling championship after suffering a broken ankle in a traffic incident this morning. The Ballyboden St Enda's man was involved in a collision with a van while travelling to work on his motorbike.
He was taken to Tallaght Hospital where it was confirmed he had broken his ankle.
The former Dublin footballer is a crucial component in their resurgence as a force in hurling this year and a key player in their march to the league title.
His absence from Sunday’s All-Ireland quarter-final against Limerick in Thurles is a massive loss for a side seeking a first semi-final appearance since 1948.
Daly will name his side after a puckaround on Friday night.
He’ll have Ryan O’Dwyer back from suspension and Joey Boland and David Treacy fit again, but there will remain a gaping hole in Dublin’s attack without Keaney.
