Fennelly expecting 'huge battle' from Tipp

Kilkenny captain Michael Fennelly says that his side do not need any reminder of just how good Tipperary are. The defending champions have the utmost respect for the Tipp side they will meet in Sunday's All-Ireland SHC final at Croke Park.

"We played Tipperary twice in the league this year. The first game, I think we caught them on a bad day," said Fennelly ahead of tonight's Kilkenny team announcement.
