O’Neill urges GAA to facilitate dual players

Inter-county dual players should be given the opportunity to line out for their football and hurling teams, says GAA president Liam O’Neill.

Over the past nine days, Cork pair Eoin Cadogan and Damien Cahalane have ended their dual commitments at senior inter-county level to concentrate on football for 2013.

Former dual star Teddy McCarthy yesterday hit out at what he saw as Croke Park’s failure to accommodate Gaelic players who excel in both codes.
