2013 All Ireland winner Colin Ryan feels Saturday’s showdown of Clare and Waterford is a must win game for both sides.
The Banner come into the game off the back of victory over Limerick last time out, while the Deise are still without a point after their opening two games.
Defeat for Davy Fitzgerald’s side would end their championship hopes, while Clare will see their fate taken out of their own hands unless they get the points.
Newmarket’s Ryan says both squads will be well aware of what is on the line.
