Brady: we’ll let our hurling do the talking

TOMÁS BRADY says Leinster hurling finalists Dublin won’t try to out-muscle Kilkenny in a battle of the biceps at Croke Park. Opponents of Kilkenny recently sought to gain an edge on the Cats by fronting up to them physically.

This was most evident in the Leinster semi-final against Galway, with Kilkenny manager Brian Cody admitting: “We played second fiddle in the physicality stakes.”

Cody also noted pointedly: “I would say Waterford intended playing first fiddle to us in the physicality stakes in the All-Ireland final.”
