Eye-catching O’ Hanlon performance leaves Tipp selector impressed
The 19-year-old from Carrick Swans scored 2-1 while sharing the square with Kilkenny’s Noel Hickey, so it was hardly surprising Tipperary selector John Leahy mentioned him after the Premier’s 3-13 to 2-13 Allianz League success.
“Any time you score goals against Kilkenny it’s good because you need goals to beat them,” said Leahy. “They’re going to score goals against you. Danny is very mature, he wants to play for Tipperary and he has lovely hands and lovely skill. Today is a good confidence booster for him, but it’s only March. Hopefully Danny can produce later in the league, and in the championship.
