Tipp chiefs demand higher ‘intensity and workrate’

Tipperary will fall further behind All-Ireland senior hurling champions Clare and their other major rivals unless levels of discipline, workrate and intensity improve.

That’s the stark warning from Tipperary secretary Tim Floyd ahead of the county’s December 11 annual convention.

Floyd hailed Clare’s All-Ireland success and praised the Banner County for raising the bar “to a new level of class, pace, athleticism and power”.
