Tipperary football selector Tommy Toomey says Clonmel Commercials will need to bring “their A game” around the pace of the game if they are to overcome Nemo Rangers this weekend.
The Premier County champions meet the Cork’s football kingpins on Saturday evening at Pairc Ui Chaoimh (7.15pm) for a place in the Munster club SFC semi-finals.
Speaking to TippFM Sport ahead of the clash down south, Toomey says the balance will need to be right in order for Commercials to achieve an upset.
“The main threat from Nemo, and we saw it in the final in Dungarvan in 2019, Nemo played at pace.
“Commercials will need to have their A game around the pace of their game.
“If they play slow Nemo will be all over them but Commercials have a second or third gear and if they get up to that gear pace wise, then they are going to be a threat.
“Commercials will really have to be on their game about moving the ball, reacting very quickly, making sure that they are getting behind the ball as many as possible but also having the forward threat.
“Getting that balance right for Commercials is going to be really important.”
