Ryan hails Tipp’s ‘quality men’

TIPPERARY manager Declan Ryan says his county is “lucky to have quality men” on its senior hurling team.

Speaking ahead of Sunday’s All-Ireland SHC final with Kilkenny, Ryan paid tribute to his charges.

“There’s plenty of leaders in the group so we just have to guide them along and hopefully they can play as well as they can on the day. Win or lose, if you do your best, you take some satisfaction out of that anyway.
