League has whetted the appetite for championship

Before I go into a round-up of this year’s Allianz Hurling League, I’d like to comment on events in Nowlan Park yesterday — great to see the physicality, from both teams, and easy to see there was a lot at stake.

League has whetted the appetite for championship

This was a game played at almost championship intensity and skill, and credit to Kilkenny and Cork for that.

Overall, I’d say people got real value for money from this year’s league, from every round. All the county team managements also got value from it, several new players emerging on almost every team, players I expect we’ll be seeing a lot more of come championship.
