No Premier double for the Decies

Tipperary 2-14 Waterford 1-11

Corbett, having a quiet game by his standards, exploded into action in the closing five minutes when this very unspectacular game, watched by an attendance of 5,772, still hung in the balance.

Corbett soloed through to hit a smashing goal and then set up midfield player, Eoin Brislane, for another, as Tipperary finally saw off the challenge of a Waterford side that tried gallantly but rarely looked like winning.
