I think now is the perfect time for Conor Counihan and Denis Walsh to sit down with their selectors and trainers and sketch out a regime that would allow for the return of the dual player in Cork.
With our footballers so close to All Ireland glory and our hurlers in need of some freshening up it would be great to see both teams gaining the advantage of a few players who are equally talented in both codes.
Of course, when it comes to championship, should one or both teams end up in the back door then there may be scenarios where players can only play with one of the teams on a particular weekend but this could all be ironed out in advance or failing that set Francis on Croker to change the schedule...
