O'Reilly subsequently joined the Limerick under-21 hurling team in 2016 and played during the team's unsuccessful championship campaign.[2] He was included on the panel again the following season and won a Munster Championship medal after a 0-16 to 1-11 defeat of Cork in the final.[3] On 9 September 2017, he came on as a substitute for Barry Murphy in Limerick's 0-17 to 0-11 defeat of Kilkenny in the All-Ireland final.[4]
