Power flicks switch to electrify Tipp football

IN the battle of the sideline operators tomorrow, David Power stands out from the norm.

On the Dublin side, Dessie Farrell is a celebrated figure in football with a national profile from his playing days and his role as one of the leaders of the GPA.

On the Tipperary side Power is a more low-key presence, at the helm of a minor team in an unfashionable big-ball county and bucking the managerial trend as a 28-year-old presiding over a bunch of teenagers.
