Ground rules can beat ‘puke hurling’

COMING soon to a venue near you - puke hurling. Have you noticed how poor the hurling championship has been so far this year?

There has been nothing in Munster or Leinster to get enthused about. Rucks, mauls, throw-ins, it’s like watching rugby with sticks and a smaller ball.

There is bunching and crowding everywhere as time and space is closed down by players that have become fitter, faster, stronger.
