Walsh: Seeded draw would be incredible blow

Munster chairman Robert Frost has been criticised by his predecessor and fellow Clareman Noel Walsh for proposing the 2014 provincial draw be seeded.

Walsh, a long-time proponent of the open draw, described the initial vote by the Munster Council in favour of Cork and Kerry being handed byes to separate semi-finals as “a night of infamy”.

With the 2014 provincial championship draws around the corner, the council met again last evening to vote again on the structure after the Limerick and Waterford executives separately discussed the matter.
