Ryan insists there’s no reason why Waterford can’t shoot down Offaly

Waterford manager Michael Ryan insists there is no reason why the team can’t come away from Offaly with a win in Saturday week’s preliminary round qualifier.

The panel resumed training last night with Ryan putting a particular emphasis on shooting after clocking up 15 wides in their Munster quarter-final defeat to Clare.

“We’ll look at all the issues, we’ll look at the last game and see where we went wrong,” Ryan told WLR FM. “There were certain aspects of our game that we’ve got to improve. We’ve got to take our chances. We made some very good chances against Clare up in Thurles so we’ll work hard on our shooting and various other aspects of our game.
