Surprised that O'Meara and Eoin Kelly start but management know best i suppose. It proved too early for Callinan and Bonnar Maher but both will surely see action. Shane McGrath is again held in reserve.
Interesting selection.

Shane Bourke would be a starter Sunday if fit i would think, he showed enough in the league to earn a jersey.

6 changes from the Tipp team that played in the 2011 All Ireland Final. Big turnover of players in 8 months.

Don't be surprised, one of greatest keepers to play game, wherever he pucks ball might have something to do with management and ability of half forward line. Knock your own

No doubt about it, he was a great keeper. single handed kept us at bay nearly 10years ago in all ireland semi 2003. We still hammered Tipp.
No need to knock our own, we are champions, and will be in september.

Interesting selection.

Should be interesting to see how Buggy does, particularly with EK flanking him.
I'd like to think he'll impose his own game, and not feel in awe of the presence of 'The Old Master'

Hopefully so Jim, he really has earned his chance in fairness to him. I personally didn't think both would start, i thought Pa Bourke would start in the corner and Bonnar on the wing.

Alot of Limerick lads i have being talking to are fearful that Richie McCarthy could be a weak link at full back, so hopefully Buggy or Eoin can test the fear.

You going in Jim?

Theres not much speed between the three of them tho,jonno will end up on the wing for the puck outs unless cummins is planning on hitting the full forward line with them !! Bourke will probably move into the corner.O Meara has played himself into the team so now is the time to make a name for himself.

I wouldn't have expected Bonnar to be given a start; he'll probably get some game, though.
But hardly with the kind of intensity that had become his trademark

Ryan backs Tipp to find championship mindset
By Fintan O'Toole

Friday, May 25, 2012

Their league endeavours concluded on a low note when Cork overwhelmed them in the latter stages of the semi-final in Semple Stadium.

On Sunday, Tipperary return to their Thurles home knowing victory over Limerick will give them another shot at Jimmy Barry-Murphy’s charges.

The general expectation may be that Tipperary are warm favourites to reprise their tie with Cork. Yet when Declan Ryan considers the personnel steering Limerick, his immediate reaction is to be cautious.

Manager John Allen is well-versed in beating Tipperary teams and coach Donagh O’Donnell guided Nenagh CBS to the All-Ireland colleges title.

"Limerick are in a rebuilding phase at the minute," said Ryan.

"The one thing you can say about Limerick is they’ve got a lot of potential in their forward line. That’s something every team wants. John Allen will have the team very well organised, he’s a good organiser and a good coach. Donagh O’Donnell will have done a lot of good work with Limerick as well."

Fine-tuning his own team’s preparations is of paramount importance to Ryan. When picking over the bones of that Cork defeat, he pinpointed deficiencies in their mental state as the root cause for the ineffective display.

"If you go out and are not tuned in mentally, you’ll struggle to perform. That’s the same for every team.

"You have to gauge it in the preparation the week before. How lads are reacting, their body language and that sort of thing. The biggest thing that I’ve learned as a manager is that, regardless of how physically well you’ve prepared — and our guys are in very good physical shape — if you’re not tuned in and you’re not mentally prepared to go for every ball as if it’s your last, you’re going to struggle."

Yet Ryan has confidence in his players and hopes his plans to alter a few elements of their preparation will pay off.

"We’ve been looking at a couple of those things in the last couple of weeks then and we’ll be putting them in practice for the Limerick game. Our team are more a championship team, and they relish the occasion. This particular group of players are mentally geared towards championship. Judging by the way our guys have trained and prepared over the last couple of weeks, we’re going to go full belt on Sunday."

At the outset of another championship season, Tipperary enjoy a status as one of the market leaders in national hurling. Yet that increases expectations and the standards demanded by their own supporters are high.

"You have to put everything in perspective — hurling is a way of life in Tipperary," outlined Ryan.

"I’m just amazed at how committed these guys are. It’s disappointing when you see them going out and maybe not getting the breaks they deserve because the commitment they give is fantastic.

"Everyone is entitled to their opinion in Tipp. That’s a positive thing — it’s no different than Kilkenny, Cork, Limerick or anywhere else. Any real hurling people that know what goes into preparing these teams and understand the lifestyles these players live during championship would be very fair in their comments.

"Obviously, we had a couple of games last year when we didn’t play to form and the guys shipped a bit of criticism for that. But you just get on with it and prepare as best as you can for the next game. And that’s what we’re about for Limerick

Then they say KK aren't cocky, your point was about the puck outs, you failed to back up why you thought the Limerick half back line would have success just because the KK half line did last year.

In fairness can't expect all KK folk to know there hurling, you play football?

Kerry will show how to play football on Sunday.
We will show you how to play hurling-any time.

Kerry didnt show Tipp how to play football a few weeks ago in Killarney. Nor last year when they had an 11 point lead. Of course theyll get another chance in the munster final.
If Kk could show tipp how to play hurling anytime then KK would have a 5 inarow right?
