I feared cruciate curse would strike me next, says Dub Rushe

Liam Rushe half-jokingly admits the multitude of cruciate injuries in the Dublin hurling camp left him wondering if he will be next.

Martin Quilty, who impressed in the recent relegation play-off against Galway, became the second player this year after Paul Schutte to suffer knee ailment after injuring himself in a challenge game against Waterford last week.

However, Schutte’s injury isn’t as serious as Quilty’s, who is now out for the season.
