Scores From Sideline Cuts In A Single Game

(Oldest Posts First)

I just heard a player scored 4 points from sideline cuts in the Meath Senior Hurling Championship Semi Final in Navan today.

James Murray from Trim scored 4 points from sideline cuts, from the right, from the left and even one from near the half way line.

I have never known of one player to score that many in a single game before.

Is it a record.???

Joe Canning scored 4 sidelines in an All-Ireland semi-final, so it has been done before and at the highest level. It's some achievement, regardless of the level.

Nice comparison for the Meath man to have, albeit in different circumstances.

Joe was a genius of a player.
