Clare selector Donal Og Cusack insists the pain of defeat will spur them on for the remainder of the season.
The Banner crashed out of the Munster Championship after a seven point defeat to Waterford in their last four tie.
It means that Clare have still won just one championship game since the All Ireland win of 2013, and haven't contested a Munster Final since 2008.
Cusack is hopeful they can bounce back.
Meanwhile defender Conor Cleary feels a run through the Qualifers could help Clare gain momentum once more.
Davy Fitzgerald's side came through the back door to win the All Ireland three years ago, and now face the same route once more.
Miltown Malbay native Cleary says they need to remember the season is still not over.
