Dual star Walsh opts for hurling with Cork

Cork football boss Brian Cuthbert is "disappointed" dual player Aidan Walsh has opted to play hurling only in 2015, but the manager has an eye on another dual talent, Alan Cadogan, who starred for the hurlers this year.

Cuthbert said that Alan Cadogan, younger brother of dual star Eoin, is a player he intends to speak to about playing senior football for Cork next year.

“He’s (Alan Cadogan) a player who would figure in a lot of football managers’ plans if they could get him. We’re going to have discussions with him but, at the same time, he’s made his mark with the hurlers nationally. In addition, I don’t think I could justify dual player status for one player and not for another. It’d be a case of asking him to play football alone.”
