John O’Dwyer says 2015 campaign was a let down

He ended the season with his first piece of significant silverware as a Tipperary hurler but John O’Dwyer has still labelled the 2015 campaign as a considerable let down.

The man who famously came within inches of winning the All-Ireland for Tipp in 2014 had planned to at least return to this year’s decider, though the Premier came up just short in a thrilling semi-final with Galway.

It was a major anti-climax as that game also ended manager Eamon O’Shea’s reign, taking much of the wind out of the county’s sails following their first provincial title since 2012.
