Thick-skinned Moore shrugs off twitter abuse

Oulart-the-Ballagh and Wexford defender Eoin Moore is unfazed by criticism of the leggings he wore in last Sunday’s AIB Leinster senior club hurling final against Mount Leinster Rangers.

Moore’s choice of attire created a stir on social media and clubmate Rory Jacob leapt to his defence with a passionate Twitter outburst on Monday evening.

Jacob wrote: “One so-called commentator questioned one of my teammates wearing of leggings in the game on Sunday. This player had knee ligament damage and was advised on medical grounds to wear the leggings.”
