Canning: players must deliver for Loughnane

GER LOUGHNANE may be true to his word and deliver an All-Ireland title for the Galway hurlers within two years, but former captain Ollie Canning stressed the role of the players in achieving such a goal.

Twice an Allstar and one of the team’s most consistent defenders of recent years, Canning agrees that the challenge for the new management will be to “blend” the players that are available.

And, in that context, he admits to being unsure if he will continue to be involved.
