Premier urge rethink on sideline ban

Tipperary chief Sean Nugent has insisted the GAA must revisit their controversial sideline regulations.

Nugent revealed at this week’s Premier County board meeting that Saturday night’s visit to Cork for the opening round of the National Hurling League provided logistical problems for Tipp.

Nugent said: “It was commented from the floor, from people who have more experience than myself, that while we’re not in favour of an overcrowded sideline, there is a distinction between hurling and football.
