Rest of Ireland competition could be answer to Galway ‘unfairness’, says Aogán Ó Fearghail

Galway are getting a raw deal from Leinster and Croke Park are aiming to come to their aid, GAA president Aogán Ó Fearghail has revealed.

Earlier this month, Leinster chairman John Horan said the stand-off with Galway about home advantage in the province’s senior hurling championship and access to the under-age hurling competitions had become a matter for the organisation at national level. While GAA director general Páraic Duffy admitted it required wider discussion.

Ó Fearghail, who doesn’t support the idea of Galway joining Munster, said it’s his intention to address the county’s situation in the form of a proposal next year.
