Inter-county managers Liam Cahill and Shane O’Neill have played down concerns scores are coming too easy in hurling.

On a weekend where Clare and Limerick scored 33 and 34 points respectively and Kilkenny and Tipperary also hit accumulated totals in the 30s, there were almost 90 scoring opportunities in Salthill including 58 scores and 26 wides.
