Dual-club role has helped me, says Niall Deasy

Deasy has lined out in the league for Dublin side Parnells while working in the capital, but plays in the championship for his native club, Ballyea.

Dublin-based Niall Deasy credits being able to line out for capital club Parnells as one of the reasons behind his fine season thus far with Ballyea.

Deasy, who was called into the Clare panel before Christmas, made full use of the rulebook to play for both outfits last season providing he did not play in the championship with Parnells.
