WESTSIDE

Goal-less parity at the LIT Gaelic Grounds on the opening day of the hurling league as Tipperary just about resist Limerick’s late push in a lively encounter.

Given our recent record against the Shannonsiders it will rate as a positive outcome for Tipperary. A win would have been sweeter, but not losing was satisfying enough and gives an early lift to the collective mood ahead of next Saturday’s joust with visiting Cork.

The league is up and running and the debate around rule changes has kicked off. However, the expected focus on the cynical foul rule didn’t materialise. Instead, it’s the advantage rule which has drawn most fire. More about that presently...........
