Do you know the heartbreak of your favourite hurl breaking while you’re at peak performance in an important match? With the ability to knock you off your game, why let something so trivial continue to happen? It can often mean the difference in getting that final point to win the match. However, Cúltec is leading the way in the next generation of hurling sticks. The Offaly based company has brought a new synthetic fibreglass hurl to the market which is much stronger than the traditional ash hurl.
Approved by the GAA, the Cúltec hurl is the perfect tool in the hands of any hurler or camogie enthusiast. The synthetic hurley is hallow from the handle to the bás, with a cork in the bás to give a large sweet spot. It encompasses premium touch, strike and balance to be used by all levels of ability

This season O’Neills is kit partner to the Manuwatu Turbos and Hawkes Bay in New Zealand for their coming campaign.
They will line up against the likes of Auckland and Bay of Plenty, two of Joe Schmidt’s old coaching assignments. With New Zealand competitions running until halfway through the World Cup, there’s a chance that some of the players may end up receiving a call up to the All Blacks World Cup team in the event of injury.
In 2015 Joe Moody got a late injury call up and was selected to play in the semi-final and final. Manuwatu Turbos and Hawke’s Bay both field an exciting array of rugby talent with a strong mix of established and emerging talent, many of whom already have featured in Super Rugby, with the Maori All Blacks or development New Zealand squads.

The Super Rugby Finals stage returns to Canberra this weekend as the Plus500 Brumbies take on the Sharks from South Africa at home at the GIO Stadium in a Quarter Final clash.
The match will kick off at 8:05pm.
If the Brumbies are successful in overcoming the Sharks and if the Jaguares defeat the Chiefs in Buenos Aires, the Brumbies will travel to Argentina for a semi final the following weekend. If the Chiefs are successful the New Zealanders will play the Brumbies at GIO Stadium.
Last weekend saw the Plus500 Brumbies end their regular Super Rugby season with their seventh straight victory at GIO Stadium against the Reds.
As their last game of the year before finals, the Brumbies also had the boost of sealing the bonus-point victory winning 40-27. It’s fair to say the Red made the Brumbies fight hard in the second half to take the win.
Coach Dan McKellar said afterwards, “I’m happy
