Flying hurlers to Sydney a waste of money, says Joe Quaid

The decision to fly the hurlers of Galway and Kilkenny to Sydney to play a one-off challenge game was a colossal waste of money, according to Westmeath manager Joe Quaid, who added that the GAA don’t care about counties outside the top-tier.

Galway and Kilkenny, as reward for their league final victories this year and last, were brought to Australia to compete for the Wild Geese trophy.
