Tipp quell talk of insurrection as Dubs exit tamely

Dublin 0-16 Tipperary 2-23

Talk of another revolutionary era in hurling has been feverish this past two summers, but Tipperary’s comfortable victory in yesterday’s second All-Ireland quarter-final has almost quelled the whiff of insurrection.

With Kilkenny and Cork holding the two provincial titles and already safely ensconced in the last four, it now falls to Limerick to uphold the sense of romance that has elevated this championship.
