Tipp’s Kelly determined to lead from the front

You would be disappointed with your performance, granted, but I’m at the age now where I have to be showing leadership, and if I’m showing disappointment in the dressing room at being taken off, that’s not good.

A STRANGE thing happened to Eoin Kelly in the dying minutes of Tipperary’s Munster SHC semi-final win over Clare. With the game in the balance, Kelly, owner of five All Stars and one Celtic Cross, was called ashore by manager Liam Sheedy.

A seismic occurrence? You could say that, so rare than even Eoin himself isn’t sure of the last time it happened.
