Durack says finals should be decided the first day

Clare’s three-time All Star goalkeeper Seamus Durack believes the All-Ireland final replay has been demeaned by its Saturday evening throw-in.

He is also adamant the game should be decided on the one day because of the impact a second day has on club fixtures.
