Time heals for Waterford
And while the deferral of the game by a week will have undoubtedly suited Wexford following their Leinster final defeat to Kilkenny, there are also benefits for Waterford.
None more than for midfielder and captain Tony Browne, who has now recovered from the ankle ligament injury which seriously threatened his participation in the Munster final against Cork. Browne bravely lined out and went through the pain barrier before being forced to retire in the closing quarter. He has continued to receive treatment since and is now in flying form in training.
