Daly: new rules won’t disrupt hurling

CONCERNS that the implementation of the experimental rules in hurling will disrupt play are unfounded, according to the GAA’s head of games Pat Daly.

In fact, his conviction is that if they succeed in eliminating the type of “disruptive fouls” which are being targeted, the game is going “to speed up”.

And, pointing to the Tyrone/Dublin game in Croke Park last Saturday night, he said that the benefits of the rule changes were obvious to everybody.
