Won’t Cody and Cats just relish taking on the big dogs

The first time I saw Peter Casey during my time with the Limerick Academy, and as Limerick minor coach in 2015, I felt he’d be more suited to being a jockey in the Irish Derby than a hurler lighting up Croke Park.

Caso had incredible hands but he had such a jockey’s frame that you wondered if he’d ever be strong or physical enough to make it at inter-county senior level. A fella like him probably wouldn’t have survived in the past but Caso has certainly proved himself at the highest level now.
