A key member of the Tipperary senior football panel's coaching team believes there are 'a lot' of good players and teams in the county.
Shane Stapelton made his comments as preparations for the Premier County's 2017 season begin to ramp up.
Tipp will begin their quest to win promotion from Division 3 of the National Football League with a home game against Antrim in just under three months' time.
Shane thinks there are plenty of reasons to be optimistic about Tipp's prospects.
