Canning adamant on senior decision

JOE CANNING has dismissed speculation he is to join the Galway senior hurling squad this week.

The Portumna youngster had a magnificent Fitzgibbon Cup campaign with LIT scoring 5-33 in the four games played, and clearly has come under increased pressure to change his mind about accepting Ger Loughnane’s invitation to join the Galway senior set up.

“I don’t know where the talk of me joining the Galway senior squad has come from, but my plans have not changed,” he said.
