McGrath injury reports untrue

WATERFORD’S star centre-back Ken McGrath has dismissed reports that he will miss the Déise’s defence of their Allianz National Hurling League title.

Media reports over the weekend suggested that McGrath had been ordered to rest for three months with an ongoing groin injury, and would therefore miss the entire NHL campaign, but the Mt Sion clubman rubbished those reports yesterday.

“No, I don’t know where that story came from,” said McGrath.
