Kelly keen to move on after Treaty loss

Eoin Kelly is desperate to avoid talk of 2010 as Tipperary’s senior hurlers look to get their championship season back on track.

Kelly was captain three years ago when Tipp recovered from a 10-point defeat against Cork in the Munster championship to finish the season as All-Ireland champions. But the 31-year-old forward insists history is irrelevant as Tipp look to bounce back from a disappointing Munster SHC semi-final defeat against Limerick.

The Premier County will discover their opponents in phase 2 of the All-Ireland qualifiers next Monday. And six-time All Star Kelly is anxious to atone for that Gaelic Grounds setback as quickly as possible.
