Tallow show true colours

IT’S an unusual pairing in the south-east tomorrow — Ballygunner are frequent participants in the Waterford senior hurling final, but Tallow, from the west of the county, have surprised the pundits by making it to the big day for the first time since they won the title back in 1985.

Wins over Lismore and Ballyduff Upper have helped them to the decider, but as James Murray says, it’s not that long since they were concerned with relegation rather than silverware.

“It’s been great the last few weeks,” says the Tallow veteran.
