Forde points the way as Silvermines reach first final

Silvermines (Tipperary) 0-13 An Rinn (Waterford) 0-11

Although the Waterford champions led by three at the break, 0-7 to 0-4, Silvermines upped their game considerably in the second half to take command but were made fight all the way by the dogged Gaeltacht outfit.

An Rinn, playing into the breeze, capitalised on a slow Silvermines start and led 0-4 to 0-2 after 15 minutes thanks to points from Tadhg Ó’Huallacháin and Donal Breathnach and two from wing-forward Bili Breathnach.
