Waterford to play Offaly at neutral venue after losing Walsh Park appeal
Waterford's opening game of the Allianz Hurling League against Offaly will now take place at a neutral venue after the Déise lost their appeal to have the game played in Walsh Park rejected.

The rule states a county cannot hold training gatherings except in the 10 days prior to a championship match. They lost their appeal on Monday, according to Irish Examiner reporter Eoghan Cormican.
A replacement venue is yet to be confirmed.
