Wexford hurling selector Ger Cush has denied claims that Jack Guiney has been dropped from the panel for a second time.

The Rathnure forward was set to make his first appearance for the Slayneysiders since being axed last June in last night's 2-23 to 0-15 defeat to Limerick at the Gaelic Grounds, after having been named to start at full-forward by manager Liam Dunne on Thursday night.

Rumours mounted afterwards that the 22-year-old's withdrawal was down to another disciplinary issue, however Cush was quick to quash those when speaking to Newstalk Radio last night.

"Jack's part of the plans, at the moment, anyway. It's just the hamstring problem and we will see how it goes in the next week," Cush stated.

Next up for Wexford is a must-win clash with promotion favourites Clare next Sunday and Cush says it is unclear yet whether or not Guiney, who was the Model men's top scorer in the league last year with 2-26, will be available for selection.

"We'll have to look at that along with a few other guys that are missing. We'll see how we are on Monday night," he said.
