Enda McEvoy: The future is now for Waterford

This ride on the white and blue merry-go-round. Where is it going to end? When are Waterford actually going to lose a match?

The “fall off in performance as the year wears on” that Derek McGrath was warning about last week: Is it going to materialise at all or was the sly young fox simply peddling a line that many of us media simpletons obligingly bit on?

This much we know for sure. Waterford will at worst be hurling up to the last weekend in July. Year Two of McGrath’s reign has yielded not only a National League title but also real, tangible, verifiable progress in the championship. Waterford may or may not be the team of tomorrow. For the moment they remain the team of today.
