Derek McGrath must now galvanise Waterford

Victories are often glossed over while defeats are analysed intently. So how will Waterford react to their first loss of 2015?

Will their belief be badly shaken by the performance against Tipperary or will their hopes of All-Ireland glory remain as strong as ever?

Manager Derek McGrath has been careful all season to focus only on the next game, so now Dublin is all that fills his thoughts. Progression to an All-Ireland semi-final would be an important milestone for a number of reasons. It would give this young team some much-needed experience in Croke Park, more so against All-Ireland champions Kilkenny.
