[QUOTE="North Cork, post: 7397064, member: 40443"] I am not questioning his ability as a hurler but I am questioning if he has the physicality to play against senior inter county defenders. William Buckley is not a big man and he never will be unless part of the s&c you refer to relates to being stretched on the rack. It is simply a fact that in the modern senior inter county game that size and physicality are the norm. I think this is a pity but I believe it to be a fact. Maybe the game will evolve again when this era of hurling has passed to allow less physical players have a greater involvement but that certainly is not the case at present. I think it takes most under 20 players a couple of years to further develop physically to be able to play regularly at senior and this is true even for the bigger lads then you can see the challenge for smaller players.
