Munster Senior Football Final:
Hard luck to the Tipperary Senior footballers who put up a brave fight against Kerry in the Munster final in Killarney on Sunday last. Despite getting a great start the hosts had the benefit of bringing serious quality off the bench in the second half. However our players can be proud of their efforts and now await the qualifier draw.

Best of luck to Michael Ryan and his senior hurling squad who face Waterford in the Munster Senior hurling final on Sunday in the Gaelic Grounds.
