This Sunday they do it all over again. Loughmore-Castleiney and Thurles Sarsfields meet in the Tipperary SHC final replay (Semple Stadium, 3.15pm), having fought out a draw two weeks ago.

With due respect to the Sarsfields, Loughmore have hogged the limelight. Last weekend they slipped Clonmel Commercials with an injury-time goal in the SFC final. One interested observer sees trace elements of their football prowess in their hurling style.
