Waterford's Austin Gleeson is eager to go all the way in this year's All-Ireland under-21 hurling championship.

A facile win over Antrim in the semi-final last weekend has earned the Decies a place in the final where they will now face Galway.

Three years ago, this side lifted the All-Ireland MHC title and now they are just sixty minutes away from glory again.

Gleeson told the Waterford News & Star that it would be a remarkable end to the year for the Munster side.

"You could call the team history makers in a way," said Gleeson. "We just want to make history again in two weeks and have the two lads walk up those steps and collect the trophy.

"Just like the seniors, it's more like a club team than a county team. Everyone is together and that's the main thing. There's no one saying that he should be playing or he shouldn't be playing."
