I won't be surprised if Tipp beat Waterford. If they start well, I think they can get the job done.

Tommy Walsh is brilliant because when he's on a game he just talks normal. It's like chatting to a lad up the pitch.
No fancy cliches or buzzwords to try sound something special. And the irony is given all he's won he's in more of a position to talk shite than anyone else on there but he doesn't.
Plus the best thing I've noticed about him is he never unfairly criticises any player no matter what errors they make or goes in hard like some pundits. He gives great respect to all players. If he ever makes a joke or smart comment it'll be at his own expense.
And you just know it's not all put on, he's just a real genuine guy.

Definitely the best around. While we always admired him as a player I never thought I'd actually like him.

Not a hope...Tipp are gone

Bit of a nonsense saying Tipp "haven't a hope"

Waterford yet to show that they can put back to back wins together in Munster.

Tipp surely have a kick in them. They certainly have goals in them, it's the point scoring that's deserted them recently

Not a hope...Tipp are gone

Correct, Cahill being badly exposed at this level, he was haunted his first year with Waterford was during Covid because his 2 round robin years have been shambolic, team is unfit and way off tactically, haunted to get out last year with Waterford a rabble and cork a shambles last year

 

[Northcorkman]

Cahill coming out after being obliterated saying he doesn’t understand what went wrong and there will be consequences over this next week. And then picks the exact team

Not a hope...Tipp are gone

The same could have been said about Clare last year as they lost to Tipp in Cusack Park by 5 points in Round 1 of Munster. In Round 2, they then went and beat Limerick in The GG.

This is an all or nothing game for Tipp, I think they can do it.

Yellow Bellies giving Henry's blood pressure a fair aul rattle.
