Davy Fitz connection has Eoin Kelly excited about a new journey

Kelly has seen this Waterford team hit their potential on certain days. Their problem has been a failure to consistently hit their potential within a demanding championship season

ACROSS ENEMY LINES: Former Tipperary and All-Ireland winning captain Eoin Kelly, has hooked up with Davy Fitzgerald's Waterford.

It had got to the stage where Eoin Kelly’s car would drive itself to Thurles.

For 21 years - 18 as a player and three as a member of Liam Sheedy’s backroom team - Kelly’s involvement with Tipperary had taken him into Semple Stadium on a weekly basis.
