The Waterford hurlers face an anxious wait to see if they’ll be without a number of key players for next month’s All-Ireland final with Galway.

Austin Gleeson and Conor Gleeson are both in danger of missing the game, in what was the only low point of a historic semi-final win over Cork yesterday.

Conor Gleeson was handed a straight red card for an off the ball incident, while footage appears to show current Hurler of the Year Austin Gleeson pulling the helmet of Cork’s Luke Meade.

Waterford have already lost two players through suspension this year as a result of the rule, with Stephen Bennett and Tadhg de Burca missing the games against Offaly and the Rebels respectively.
