TIPPERARY manager Liam Sheedy says it would be good for hurling if injured Kilkenny star Henry Shefflin makes the All-Ireland final – and good for Tipperary.

Hurling enthusiasts from all over the country will flock to Stillorgan on Saturday week - September 1 - for a hurling event that will kick start this year's All-Ireland Hurling finals weekend - the AIB Kilmacud Crokes All-Ireland Hurling Sevens.
