Suprised Miller and brown got the start.

Suprised Miller and brown got the start.

hopefully Eamonn Brown does start and there's no late changes, I think he's one with loads of potential.

[Lloyd p]

There will 100% be changes to that team

[Johnnysboys]

There will be changes to that team I'd say. 2 points a necessity to build on good work already done.

Half time Tipp 0-2 Down 1-6

Pat Havern 1-3 Eamonn Brown 0-2 Odhran Murdock 0-1

[Mourne Rover]

Niall McParland is off after a second yellow. Twenty minutes left and we are four up so it could yet be a tight finish.

[Sheedy]

Full time Tipp 1-11 Down 2-11

Good to get off to winning start. Made it harder when Niall mcparland got sent off at start of second half. Connor Francis got second half goal.

Great win. Closer than what I thought though
Jim McG now in with Down. After the merry dance he give them last year I'm surprised.
Doesn't say much for the selection team that tried to get him last year.

Great win. Couldve went against us after the sending off. Tipp went at us after that. Down still very much work in progress but none if thr old sideways bullshit. Get it forward at pace. Great to watch but can be wasteful at times. 1st time in Thurles for a game. Lovely old ground. Roll on next Sat night in Newry. A big Down crowd tonight.
