Déise skipper threatens boycott in seeding row

Waterford football captain Shane Briggs insists they will join Limerick, Tipperary and Clare in walking away from the 2015 Munster championship if the seeded draw remains in place.

Players from the four counties boycotted yesterday’s Munster launch at King John’s Castle in Limerick.

Speaking with WLR FM yesterday, Briggs stated: “It’s another show of solidarity against the scrapping of the open draw in Munster. We have all decided that we are not going to participate in any advertising for the Munster championship as long as Cork and Kerry are seeded.”
