Murphy in line for Galway job

VICTORIOUS All-Ireland minor boss Mattie Murphy could be in line to take charge of the Galway seniors for the third time.

Murphy is one of three candidates named for the position with current boss Conor Hayes also coming under pressure from another former Galway manager Noel Lane.

Galway Hurling Board have chosen a seven man committee to select their manager for next season. Conor Hayes, manager for the past two seasons, wants to stay on but is now under pressure after clubs in the county also nominated Lane and Murphy.
