Manager Charlie McGeever believes his Tipperary minor football team can improve on their victory over Waterford.

The Premier County made hard work of their opening-round win over Na Deise in this year's Munster MFC (2-11 to 2-7) but McGeever is expecting an improvement for their semi-final clash with Kerry next month:

"Some of our better players are just on the way back from injury," he says in The Tipperary Star. "We had eight dual players who played last week.

"Our captain Willie Connors hasn't played in three-and-a-half months; Stephen Quirke hasn't played in eight weeks.

"That's the plus, they will get better. What I call our spine will get better. I thought Danny Owens, even with a bad hand, did exceptionally well and we will have Alan Tynan back, who is our main inside man." Tweet
