Paudie Murray blasts ‘ridiculous’ scheduling

Cork senior camogie team manager Paudie Murray has described as “ridiculous” a situation where the county’s dual stars will have to choose between both codes next Saturday.

Cork are fixed to play Tipperary in the Munster camogie final in Cashel at 4.30 and the Ladies Gaelic Football Association announced yesterday that the Tesco Division 1 final replay between Cork and Galway will be played in Portlaoise at 7.30pm on the same evening.

That leaves dual panellists Rena Buckley, Briege Corkery and Meabh Cahalane with a huge decision to make, although Cahalane is expected to choose camogie. Murray indicated last night that he will contact ladies football boss Eamonn Ryan later today to discuss the impasse.
