Storm Dennis: Limerick vs Waterford postponed and TV coverage cancelled for Bohemians vs Shamrock Rovers

Saturday night's Allianz Hurling League clash between Limerick and Waterford has been postponed due to Storm Dennis.

Gusts as strong as 120km/h and thundery rain are expected in parts of the country.

The Division 1A game has been provisionally rescheduled for 2pm on Sunday, but that is subject to a 9am pitch inspection tomorrow morning. 

Waterford GAA said on Twitter: "Tonights Allianz Hurling League Game between Waterford and Limerick has been provisionally postponed until tomorrow at 2pm. Following a pitch inspection at 9am!"

TV coverage of the League of Ireland clash between Bohemians and Shamrock Rovers has also been cancelled, but the game is still going ahead at Dalymount Park.

RTE said in a statement: “The SSE Airtricity League of Ireland and RTÉ Sport regret to announce the cancellation of live TV coverage of today’s Dublin derby between Bohemians and Shamrock Rovers.

“The decision was taken on health and safety grounds due to the inclement weather caused by Storm Dennis and its effect on the working conditions of broadcast staff.”
