Being underdogs didn’t affect Passage ahead of their Waterford SHC semi-final win over Mount Sion last Sunday, according to star defender Noel Connors.

The expectation in Waterford that Mount Sion would face Ballygunner in the county final didn’t seep through to the panel, he added: “As players, you probably don't pay too much attention to it, that's not to sound arrogant or ignorant, but you just don't and you get on with it and you go out and train.
