Offaly GAA chairman Michael Duignan believes the inclusion of three Limerick players in the Kerry senior hurling panel does little for the promotion of the game in the Kingdom.

In November, Kerry were granted a deviation in the special eligibility rule, which states only hurlers at Nicky Rackard or Lory Meagher Cup level can line out for the county of their parent(s) and retain their own club.
