Paddy Christie impressed as Tipperary's stars stay grounded

Former Dublin footballer and current Tipperary selector Paddy Christie at the launch of AIB's The Toughest Season photobook.

Tipperary coach Paddy Christie says he’s surprised how ‘mature’ and level headed the players have been since their Munster title breakthrough.

The former Dublin All-Star recalled teammates going ‘nuts’ after their Leinster title success in 2002, the county’s first in seven years. He believes it cost Dublin next time out against Donegal, though hasn’t identified any such slippage since Tipperary shocked Cork.
