Clare attacker Róisín Begley has said that the Banner players have renewed determination to push themselves to their limits following the devastating cruciate injury suffered by key player Lorna McNamara. The duo started the All-Ireland campaign in a blistering scoring tandem, combining for 2-11 in their Group 2 opener against Dublin and 2-03 in the success against Wexford. McNamara only managed one white flag in the latter though, going down in obvious distress 17 minutes in.
