It is perhaps fitting that Tipperary, Galway’s arch-rivals who battled most memorably with Micheál Donoghue’s teams during his first stint in charge, are the opponents again as the Allianz National Hurling League Division 1A gets underway in Pearse Stadium on Sunday afternoon (throw-in: 3.45pm).

Having clawed their way back from significant deficits in both halves, the Galway senior hurlers ran out of steam in the closing minutes of last Sunday’s National League encounter with Tipperary as the hosts ran out five point victors.

Heroes wear capes for a reason, so that people will know who to go to in the event of an an emergency. There’d be no point in Superman or Spiderman having their own movies if they weren’t going to pop up in the end and save the day.

After Mayo's superb victory over Tyrone I have to pinch myself to comprehend that Mayo are playing Tipperary in an All-Ireland semifinal on Sunday. It sounds bizarre. If we go back to June 18 and after watching Mayo's poor performance against Galway, we firstly did not see Mayo getting to a semifinal and if they did we certainly did not expect the opposition to be from the premier county. Clare and Tipperary have both been very successful examples of the qualifiers in 2016 but Tipp's trouncing of Connacht champions Galway by nine points has certainly made them the number one success story.
