Tipperary defender Bryan O'Mara has insisted that the decision to go with squad numbers for last weekend's Munster SHC opener was a 'one-off' which is unlikely to be repeated.

In response to the GAA's new directive that teams must be released to the public on Friday mornings, ahead of when Liam Cahill's management team intended to announce it to the players, the Tipp squad was initially named in alphabetical order.
