Donal Óg Cusack believes that the hurling championship suffered this year due to the media's coverage of Ireland's test series with the All Blacks in New Zealand.
Speaking in RTE's The Sunday Game last night, the former Cork goalkeeper spoke about what he felt was a lack of media coverage ahead of Limerick's tight win over Kilkenny in a classic All Ireland final. And in his opinion, the reason why coverage was so sparse was because newspaper inches were being filled by Ireland's historic test series win in New Zealand.
"Today was an example of how the envelope has been pushed with regards to this game, it’s just getting better and better. Players are getting faster, stronger and the skill levels…" said the three time All Ireland winner.
