RTÉ ‘sweeper’ stunt slated

Derek McGrath has criticised the “sweeper” characterisation of Waterford on RTÉ’s Up For The Match programme on Saturday, writes John Fogarty.

McGrath felt the group were let down by the segment in the pre-All-Ireland final show where children in the Ferrybank GAA club used sweeping brushes to push around a sliotar and a baker referenced the “sweeper system” while brushing flour.
