Former Waterford star Jim Greene believes the powers-that-be have made the right call by fixing the Munster SHC final for the Gaelic Grounds.

"Last year we went to Thurles and unfortunately we don't have a field ourselves to take it," he remarked to The Examiner.

"A home and away agreement is not something we're capable of and Cork is not available so we had the simple choice of Thurles or Limerick.

"Playing Tipperary in Thurles is never a good idea. I know we caught them there in the league this year and it's a beautiful field and all the players love playing there but Tipp in a Munster final there is daunting.

"There's added pressure and we don't need that and Limerick is the only alternative.

"If I was manager of Waterford and I had the choice of Thurles or Limerick, I would take them to the neutral venue.

"But at the end of the day, it's not about where you play but how you play. If we play to the top of our form, I think we can take Tipp but if we don't we won't and I don't think the field will have much of a say in that.

"It's come down to attitude and I think our attitude is great."
