Tipp men hoping to lead Ireland to Nations Cup success

Ireland will be represented by two Tipperary men – the Olympics-bound Greg Broderick and Denis Lynch. Cian O'Connor and Bertram Allen are the other members of the team that will jump third today behind the United States and Great Britain. 

Team Ireland currently lie in sixth place in the Nations Cup series, with Dublin being their last event where they can pick up points. 

Seven of the 10 countries that have competed in Europe Division I this season will qualify for Rio.

Nations Cup action is due to begin at 3 o'clock later this afternoon.
