Tipperary hurling manager Colm Bonnar says he has no problem experimenting with is team during the Allianz League.

Tipp were knocked off top spot in Division 1 Group B yesterday after Dublin condemned them to a 2-16 to 0-21 defeat in Thurles.

Speaking to TippFM afterwards, Bonnar said that the league campaign is about developing players and plans to continue to do so when his side travels to face Waterford next weekend.

“The easy option always when you have a winning team is to leave the 15 together but we have no problem that we brought in another eight players, that’s over half a team," he said.

“We have no problem doing that because we can see what the players are giving to us in training.

“They are giving us absolutely everything no matter what team we pick at training, whatever 15-on-15, it’s just so balanced so every player that’s out there deserves a run and again, that’s what we said we’d use the league (for).

“We’d see if we can bring the younger lads, give them experience and we’ll be doing the same again when we go down to Walsh Park next Sunday.”
