Donie O’Connell was one of Tipp’s better players
Donie actually had a fine game, his touch was as good as the other forwards.
Textbook Declan Ryan sidestep there. A lovely hurler.
Helluva combover
Colm Bonnar did some pulling on the ball, it seemed to be his first instinct every time
Leahy was a boy doing a man’s job
Can’t remember?
Another fine score for Declan Ryan after a poor enough start
Easy see why the Viking was so important to Tipp in the next few years
Declan Ryan was a lovely hurler
Michael Cleary moreso, was a reliable freetaker.
I did not know Tessio was playing
Didn’t Pat Fox take the free in 1987
Tessio was a great semi final hurler
He did. Nicky had a habit of balancing the ball on the hurley before striking.
Keady having a stormer
Tipp got shafted for a goal there
Thankfully no advantage back then.
Another Kirwan shafting them.
Hurling has come a long way too.
