Former Limerick dual star Steven Lucey has admitted he's "heartbroken" at the recent ultimatum on Shannonside which saw him choose football over hurling.

Hurling boss Pat Joe Whelahan ordered Lucey, and five other dual players, to focus on one or the other because of the huge demand and strain involved.

The sextet chose football and Lucey admitted: "I'm heartbroken over the whole thing. At the same time what can I do? It's out of my hands."
