Kennedy faces ban, but Mullen plays down ‘interception’

Rising Kilkenny star Adrian Mullen has admitted he wrote off the Greg Kennedy interception debacle last weekend as a ‘bizarre’ incident that occurred ‘in the heat of battle’.

Dublin selector Kennedy, a former Galway corner-back, intercepted a free struck by TJ Reid and intended for Billy Ryan during last Saturday’s Leinster SHC tie at Nowlan Park.
