Cats duo hit with hefty suspensions

KILKENNY paid a heavy price for their ill-discipline in last Sunday’s Allianz Hurling League Division 1 final when two of their players were hit with suspensions for unsavoury incidents during the Croke Park game.

Wing-forward Eoin Larkin received a four week ban, but corner-back John Dalton was hit with a hefty eight week suspension as a result of the deliberations of the GAA’s disciplinary body, the CCCC.

In a statement last night, Kilkenny secretary Ned Quinn confirmed neither player will be appealing those suspensions.
