Liam Watson is one of 10 Antrim players on the Ulster team

Connacht booked their place in the Railway Cup Hurling Final in Rome next month by beating Munster 1-20 to 1-16 in Limerick on Saturday.

A Tony Griffin goal helped Munster into a one-point lead at the interval but Conor Hayes' all-Galway side took control in the second half to win the contest.

Connacht will face the winners of Sunday's second semi-final between Ulster and Leinster in the decider in the Eternal City on 8 November.

GAA president Sean Kelly has confirmed the decider will take place at the Giulio Onesti sports complex in the Parioli region of the Italian capital on Sunday 8 November.

It will be the highest profile GAA game ever to be played in continental Europe.

The idea was the brainchild of Noel Walsh, chairman of the Railway Cup task force.

Ulster team: Graham Clarke; M Kettle, E McKeever, J Campbell; M McCambridge, K McKeegan, C Herron; J Connolly, Gregory Biggs; L Watson, C McGuckian, P Richmond; B McFall, G Johnson, P Braniff.
Subs: D D Quinn, S Wilson, D Magil, Gabriel Clarke, P Kane, C Cunning, O Collins, A Delargy, G O'Kane, M Herron, S Clarke, D Quinn.

Meanwhile, Ireland international rules manager John O'Keefe has confirmed that Trevor Giles will not be travelling to Australia due to injury.

His place on the Irish squad will be taken by Dublin's Shane Ryan who will fly out with the rest of the Irish party on Saturday with the first Test taking place in the Subiaco Oval in Perth on Friday 24 October.
