    Tipperary forward Jason Forde, speaking to BBC Sport NI:

    "It was a mad last 10 minutes. You're all over the place, I was on the half-forward line for a lot of the last 10 minutes.

    "Oisin coming on and getting the goal, that's a goal nearly every game he's come on in this year. For a lad at 19 it's exceptional.

    "When Darragh got sent off the game went a bit frantic, there was no real structure to the play so we stayed in it and got the scores at the right time."

    "They won't fear us, they've beaten us by 10 points twice already this year but we'll go in ready."

  5. 'It hasn't fully registered yet' - O'Marapublished at 17:39 British Summer Time 6 July

    FT: Kilkenny 0-30 Tipperary 4-21

    Tipperary's Bryan O'Mara, speaking to BBC Sport NI:

    "It hasn't fully, registered yet but we went down to 14, lost one of our best players in Darragh, and everybody would've written us off but we stuck to the plan and we came up trumps again.

    "Unbelievable (block on the line). People have been saying Robert (Doyle) is the find of the year. He absolutely is but we've had four or five of those boys who've come in and taken to it like ducks to water."
