Ruthless Cats leave DJ out

FORMER Allstar DJ Carey has been left out of the Kilkenny team for the opening defence of their Leinster SHC against Wexford at Croke Park on Sunday.

The defending All-Ireland champions showed no mercy when they picked the team and, in all, three of the McCarthy Cup side will sit out theaction.

Carey has been troubled by a neck injury in recent weeks and he missed an amount of training. However, he was available for selection, but he didn't make the cut.
