John McGrath rejects Kieran Bergin’s bleak picture of life in Tipperary camp

John McGrath has painted a different picture of life in the Tipperary senior hurling camp to the bleak portrait painted by Kieran Bergin.

In a newspaper interview, Bergin, who stepped away from the panel last year, claimed players were treated like children and told to “basically give up drink for the entire year”.

McGrath, though, said Tipperary’s attitude towards socialising is healthy.
