Brennan's bred to overhaul grassroots of Association

NEXT month's election for the presidency of the GAA is unique, the first occasion in modern times that just two candidates have been put forward.

The thorny issue of Rule 42 has dominated discussion about the candidacies of Nicky Brennan and Christy Cooney, and former Kilkenny hurler Brennan readily admits there are "some differences" between his views and those of Cooney.

Whether this will influence counties he is unsure, but he argues that it shouldn't.
