Munster manager unhappy with timing of interpros

MUNSTER hurling manager Joe O’Leary last night outlined his unhappiness with the scheduling of the M Donnelly Interprovincial series.

“It’s unfortunate that the authorities pick a time for the games when most of the top players are going to be involved in county finals and semi-finals, even though they’d love to be involved with their provinces, it’s a shame”, said Cork selector O’Leary.

“The players are all very keen to represent Munster, but fellas who’ve lost a county final on a Sunday obviously aren’t going to be in the mood to head to Thurles for training on the following Tuesday.”
