Daly looks to make up for painful Leinster final flop to Kilkenny

Anthony Daly is hoping the bitter memories of Dublin’s systems failure against Kilkenny in the Leinster final will provide the spur for his side to come out on top against Tipperary in Sunday’s All-Ireland quarter-final in Thurles.

Brian Cody’s side were 12-point winners last month, even the 0-24 to 1-9 scoring failing to capture the true gap between the sides on a day that Dublin’s 12-month hold on the Bob O’Keeffe Cup was surrendered.

“We got together straight away (after the Kilkenny game) and had a chat,” Daly said on Dublin’s hill16.ie website. “From top to bottom we just didn’t perform. You can take the painful defeats but when you just don’tturn up — it’s desperate stuff in your head.
