14. Jason Forde Rating: 8/10 Forde looks to be in as good a shape as we have seen in his decade or so on the panel, and he had a good game again on Saturday night. He will be disappointed to have missed a few point efforts in the first half but he generally did well and hit 1-4 from play in his time on the pitch and looks to be ready to lead the Tipp forward line this year.

15. John McGrath Rating: 7/10 It just isn’t happening for John McGrath and he had a very quiet game once again on Saturday night in the loss to the Treaty. He got onto a bit of possession at half-forward but left a guilt edged point behind him early on; one which he would usually put over without thinking. He looks low on confidence and the Tipperary management are giving him every chance to rediscover his form but he is quickly running out of road with championship looming.
