Free agent Dunford has licence to roam

A system. A structure. A scheme. Many words have been used to describe Waterford’s style of play this year and yet they all sound so limited.

The interchanging between Colin Dunford and Austin Gleeson against Dublin flies in the face of the theory that the tactics Derek McGrath operates confine the duties of players.

For some games, Gleeson has simply been told to go out and hurl. Dunford has such an expansive role that there are few restrictions on him. He enters no game with a list of do’s and don’ts.
