    Good initiative. I've never understood why more of this aspect of hurling wasn't played up. I now the U21 championship a few years back had something similar but always felt the GAA were missing a trick not selling the silky skills and close control angle of the game in this way.

    Anyone on here able to kill the ball coming from one direction and without taking ball in hand strike it onwards again Kilkenny used to warm up like that with one player in the middle of the pitch and one on each sideline Accuracy and coordination pretty incredible Especially the kill part Must take some touch to leave the ball ready to strike
