Antrim attacker Neil McManus has claimed that snubbing the Saffrons and Kerry at last month's All-Ireland SHC series launch was a 'poor day at the office' for the GAA.

The Loughmore Castleiney club in Tipperary hosted a media event with representatives of Limerick, Kilkenny, Cork, Wexford, Clare and Galway all present following the conclusion of the provincial finals.
