Hmm. Will they line out like that you reckon Harry? Curran corner back??

Can’t see Curran playing in the corner tbh.

More likely to be Cahill, Curran, O’Brien/Bergin & P Maher, O’Mahony, O’Brien/Bergin.

Starting young Bergin is a massive call by O’Shea, tbh i didn’t know he was going that well. He has a good history @ underage but this is a serious step up. Fair play to o’Shea, he is showing the players that good form in training will be rewarded.

Tipperary have a good record in Nowlan Park and that should continue on Sunday. I particularly remember a stunning win they had under Michael Doyle in 2003 when Ger O’Grady singlehandedly destroyed the entire Kilkenny defence. It was obvious right then that Doyle was the managerial messiah Tipp had been waiting for and O’Grady would go on to become one of the game’s greats.

Who’s this Bergin chap? More info please. Is Cummins dropped or injured?

corner back, Kieran Bergin is from Killenaule. Has played underage for Tipperary & played Fitzgibbon for DIT this year also.

O’Shea has rotated his keepers all year so i can’t say whether he is dropped or not tbh. He is not injured.

how seriously can o`shea be taking this if he can parachute a lad in corner back like that

Sunday will tell twiceasnice97

profound stuff

With respect, twas a pretty stupid question pal.

He’s a nephew of former Tipp hurler and selector Jack Bergin. First cousin to Joe Bergin.
He won a Munster Minor around 2004 think ( same year as Shane Long). Was away in the states for about 5 years.

KK team:
E Murphy, P Murphy, Delaney, Tyrrell, Walsh, B Hogan, Joyce, Ryan, M Fennelly, Buckley, Rice, Larkin, C Fennelly, R Hogan, Fogarty

Declan Carr was on off the ball and he said he expects tipp to score 3 or 4 goals on Sunday and win…
