PODGE COLLINS IS set to make a return for the Clare hurlers, according to reports.
Collins was not part of the side’s most recent campaign, after it was suggested that his insistence on also representing Clare’s footballers would impact on his performance.
However, a report in The Clare Champion suggests the management have made a u-turn on their previous decision and will welcome Collins back on to the panel in 2016.
The player, who was shortlisted for Hurler of the Year in 2013, is currently recovering from a cruciate ligament injury.
Clare’s management have refused to comment publicly on these rumours.
Don’t know what he can be aggrieved about he elbowed toner straight in the face red card all day long fair play to the linesman cause the ref was initially going for the yellow card
@Ed Walsh: Will ya stop …barely deserved a yellow never mind a red .Embarrassing play acting from Toner .Ref initially was going for his shirt pocket for a yellow and it was the Pats fans screaming on the grass hill that made him witch to the back pocket.
There was only one really bad tackle all night ,on McCormack ,and the ref shit himself and barely produced a yellow .The diving was disgraceful too and the ref ,who’d lost the plot and control ,ignored it until the 93rd minute
@gavexile: OK
@gavexile: 100 per cent
@gavexile: Are you nuts, elbow to the face, deserved red.
He deserved to get the red card and should be banned for more than 1 game, it was an elbow to the face, really bad challenge.
Graham Cummins should be banned for a lot longer. There was no need for what he done.
What a great start for cork , st pats won’t be the push aside team they were last year !
@Tricksy: pat’s are a gutsy side, worried us ,very strong in corners/attack,or else our defence were well below par
