Cummins: Daly being given ‘ammunition’

TIPPERARY goalkeeper Brendan Cummins believes the patronising reaction to Dublin’s qualification for Sunday’s League final will provide manager Anthony Daly with “huge ammunition” ahead of the championship.

Anthony Daly’s side sealed their place in the decider against Kilkenny with a last-round defeat of Cork in Páirc Uí Chaoimh. It will be their first appearance in the fixture since 1946 when they were beaten by Clare after a replay.

However Cummins believes that Daly’s side aren’t getting the credit they deserve from many hurling quarters.
