2024 Munster Senior Hurling League

Summary

Tipperary played Waterford in their first match of the year on 7 January. The match was played in very cold but bright conditions. Danny Slattery, Conor Whelan, Sean Hayes, Andrew Ormond and Mikey O’Shea all started for Tipperary for the first time. Three points in injury time from Padraig Fitzgerald, Reuben Halloran and Seanie Callaghan won the game for Waterford on a 1-22 to 1-20 scoreline, they had a 1-12 to 0-8 lead at half-time. The game was shown live on Clubber.[7] The Tipperary goal came from Sean Ryan with fifteen minutes to go with a low shot to the corner of the net to put just two points between the team. Robert Byrne received a straight red card on 24 minutes for a wild pull across Jack Prendergast, and were nine points down at one stage in the second half. The match had been delayed by five minutes due to crowd congestion at the turnstiles with 1,500 tickets pre-sold for this fixture.[8]

A week later on 14 January, Tipperary played their second game in the Munster Senior Hurling League against Kerry in MacDonagh Park in Nenagh.[9] The match was played in freezing conditions and was shown live on Clubber. Cathal Quinn, Enda Dunphy, Killian O’Dwyer, Josh Keller, and Sean Kenneally all started for the first time in a young development team. The team featured only seven players that played in the 2023 championship, with double All-Ireland medal winner Barry Heffernan also returning after having missed 2023 through injury. [10] Tipperary has a 0-17 to 1-11 lead at half-time and in the second half Gearoid O’Connor scored from a penalty in the 48th minute after substitute Andrew Ormond was fouled with Tipperary going on to win by 1-28 to 1-14.[11][12]
