High hopes for Munster in the All-Ireland final series

Martin Coppinger will lead a strong Munster team into next weekend’s All-Ireland final series in Madden.

He is bidding for his fourth All-Ireland senior title against Ulster’s Bryan O’Reilly on Sunday. He was impressive in his Munster senior final win over Arthur McDonagh. Just when McDonagh threatened to take control he produced a massive score turning bowl. After that he looked imperious. He’s a big player and a big time player.

However, big players need big roads and Madden is not the perfect place for Coppinger to display.
