All-Star Hughes fears Father Time Monaghan’s chief opponent

Three-time All-Star Nudie Hughes feels age has “crept up on” Monaghan and they need to be starting 21-year-old Stephen O’Hanlon regularly.

After four consecutive defeats following the opening day win over Dublin, Malachy O’Rourke’s team can’t slip up in tomorrow’s south Ulster relegation derby with Cavan in Clones. What worried Hughes was how Monaghan were unable to finish off Kerry in Fitzgerald Stadium last Sunday week.
