Fitzhenry questions sense of ‘Nash rule’

Damien Fitzhenry believes Anthony Nash will be discriminated against if a new motion is brought in to ensure all close-range frees and penalties are struck before the 20m line.

The former Wexford goalkeeper was a penalty goalscorer in the 1996 Leinster final and again with a free against Tipperary in the 2007 All-Ireland quarter-final.

He acknowledges there is a safety issue associated with the Cork goalkeeper’s close-range shots.
