Tipperary v Waterford, FBD Semple Stadium, Sunday 4pm – GAAGO
Dan McCormack v Austin Gleeson
The duo faced off against each other during a league clash at Semple Stadium, with McCormack very much on top before Gleeson exited the fray after a half hour due to injury.
The Borris-Ileigh battler is very much a key man for Liam Cahill, as evidenced by his man-marking job on Gearoid Hegarty during the draw with Limerick.
Though the former Hurler of the Year has been off-colour in recent games for the Treaty, the performance of McCormack still caught the eye.
Should the latter stunt Gleesonโs influence, it will be difficult to imagine Waterford springing a surprise in Thurles.
