Which hurling rule changes should get the green light? | The politics behind integration | Indo GAA
Michael may be the only one dialling into this week’s Indo GAA hurling podcast outside of a car, with (John) Mullane in the van and Pat Ryan now dubbed ‘Paddy The Baddy in the Caddy’ - but he’s keeping the show on the road nonetheless. The proposed rule changes put forward by the Hurling Advisory Group (chaired by John Meyler) are on the agenda this week, but which ones will get the green light from the lads? How the GAA came out of the latest fallout from the integration process is also discussed. Let us know your thoughts or fire in questions to indogaapodcast@independent.ie. The Indo GAA podcast is sponsored by AIB. <p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
