Tipp injuries giving younger players a chance to shine

Tipperary won’t be playing with a full hand in the early stages of the National Hurling League.

The Premier open their campaign against Clare tomorrow evening in Semple Stadium.

Some 12 players of a panel of 40 are carrying knocks at the moment – with a number of high profile absentees.

Throw in at Semple Stadium on Saturday is at 7pm.
