Westmeath's McGrath to referee Galway-Kilkenny replay

Westmeath whistler James McGrath has been given the plum job of refereeing Sunday week's GAA All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship final replay between Galway and Kilkenny.

McGrath will be the man in the middle for the eagerly-awaited rematch between the defending All-Ireland champions and the team that beat them in this year's Leinster final.
