Shane Dowling looking for more silverware: ‘If we can match their hunger, we hope our hurling will take over’

Shane Dowling admits a break would be welcome but the prospect of claiming another county title with Na Piarsaigh can’t be turned down.

Between club and county, Dowling, Mike Casey, Peter Casey, William O’Donoghue, Kevin Downes and David Dempsey have had little time away from hurling over the past 13 or 14 months. Beat Doon in Sunday week’s final and they will be fancied to extend their interests into 2019.
