Former Cat O’Connor in hunt for Déise job

FORMER All-Ireland winning Kilkenny captain, Eddie O’Connor, is one of four nominations to become Waterford senior hurling manager.

Outgoing boss Davy Fitzgerald, Michael Ryan and Jim Greene complete the quartet seeking what a county board delegate Seamus Quirke described as “one of the top jobs in hurling”.

A sub committee consisting of chairman Tom Cunningham, vice chairman John O’Leary, secretary Timmy O’Keeffe and treasurer Michael Hogan will begin interviewing all four candidates within a week.
