Playing hurling should be all about enjoyment as far as Clare All-Star Peter Duggan is concerned.

As the clock ticks down to the start of the Munster SHC, the Clooney-Quinn clubman revealed that he doesn’t allow the pressure of competing at inter-county level weigh too heavily on his shoulders.

“As hurlers, all you want to do is play your games,” he said to Sky Sports.

“You want to win everything, so you are always going to build up. With Clooney-Quinn, whenever we find out who we are playing in the first round of championship, our whole focus is on that. It's the same way we all are.

“You have to remember that your whole reason for playing hurling is to enjoy it.

“Concentrating on the Waterford game is brilliant. If we lose it, we focus on the next game. We are playing hurling for the craic of it, rather than the stress of it.”
