Major injury concerns for Tipp as semi-final showdown looms

Tipperary may be without Eoin Kelly, John O’Dwyer, John O’Brien and Brian O’Meara for Sunday’s Allianz National Hurling League Division 1 semi-final against Dublin.

But the positive news from the Premier County is that 2010 All-Ireland SHC medallist Gearoid Ryan, a two-time All-Star nominee, has rejoined Eamon O’Shea’s squad following recent injury problems.

Ahead of Sunday, six-time All-Star Kelly is a doubt with a hamstring injury while O’Brien damaged a finger in a training match against Tipperary’s intermediate side recently.
