No inter-county hurling role for Podge in 2015

Podge Collins will commit solely to the Clare footballers next season after Davy Fitzgerald informed him he can no longer accommodate dual players.

Along with his brother Sean who also featured on both panels this year, 2013 All Star Podge will work with his father Colm, manager of the county’s football team which narrowly lost to Kildare in July’s round two qualifier.

Neither Colm Collins nor Fitzgerald were available for comment yesterday.
