Murray is from Gowna in county Cavan, and has taken Meath from intermediate grade to senior All-Ireland champions.[/caption]
"That is going to happen, yeah. I’d say we’re losing Vikki now in September and I don’t know how many more we’ll lose," he began.
"I don’t know why you’d want to play that sport because it’s dreadful stuff to watch. I can’t understand it. There’s no skill at all."
Many of those that have played the sport have spoken glowingly about its benefits but, citing Dublin pair Sinead Goldrick and Lauren Magee, Murray countered that they "didn't exactly set the world on fire when they came back."
"It’s not good, far from it, and I think if any of you check, the players coming back, the Sinead Goldricks or the Lauren Magees or any of them, they don’t exactly set the world on fire when they come back over here," he said.
"They’re not going to win the championship for any team. They keep saying, ‘Oh we’re going out here and it’s professional and we’re training seven days a week’. How much training do you want like, you know?"
So far, Murray has lost no Meath players to the AFLW and added that he doesn't "begrudge" Vikki Wall making the move.Explore more on these topics:
