Collins speaks out on his dual dilemma

Podge Collins has admitted there was only ever going to be one outcome when Davy Fitzgerald told him to choose between Clare hurling and football.

But the 2013 All-Ireland medallist and All-Star admitted he still agonised over the situation for several weeks and felt physically unwell while weighing up his options.

Collins, 22, ultimately informed Fitzgerald that he was going to focus exclusively on football in 2015, a decision his brother, Sean, also came to.
