GAA: Buckley to play in opening International Rules test
Niall Buckley is set to take part in Friday’s international rules test against Australia after fears for his fitness abated today.
Buckley hurt his hamstring in yesterday’s practice match against the Australian under-17 squad but the injury is not as serious as initially feared and he should be fit to play by Friday.
This means Ja Fallon’s hopes of an emergency call-up to the Irish team appear dashed.
