Man in the know O’Dwyer backs up Tipp talk

RYAN O’DWYER has put his money where his mouth is and backed his native Tipperary to win the All-Ireland hurling final.

Dublin’s newest recruit is in a perfect position to analyse the Liam MacCarthy Cup decider having played against both Tipp and Kilkenny at Croke Park in the league and championship.

Of course, he is also a former Tipp senior forward too and his reasoned analysis is that the Munster champions will have two points to spare on Sunday.
