The underdogs tag didn’t deter Borris-Ileigh last weekend. In fact, they revelled in it and Seamus Kennedy is hoping Clonmel Commercials can embrace being unfancied as much as his Tipperary team-mates Brendan Maher and Dan McCormack.

Few are expecting Commercials to catch Nemo Rangers as they did at this stage four years ago but Kennedy doesn’t mind. He knows the lengths the Tipperary champions will have to go to match Borris-Ileigh’s feat.
