10. Conor Bowe Rating: 7/10 Bowe can look back and be pleased with his first competitive start at senior level for Tipp. He looks to have the raw materials for this level and has the touch, size, pace, and scoring touch to make it at this level. Notched 0-3 points and was one of the big positives from the game.

11. Jason Forde Rating: 6/10 Standards are high for the Silvermines man and he had one of his more subdued outings last Sunday. He was heavily involved in general play in the first half, but his shooting really deserted him over the course of the game, shooting countless wides from play and from frees. It's possible the rigors of the games the last few weeks caught up with Forde as he has been ever present so far.

12. Michael Breen Rating: 7/10 One of the criticism's aimed at Breen since he has been playing for Tipp has been his consistency. But it seems like he is starting to get over this hurdle as he as been one of Tipp's more reliable performers in the league so far. He was very busy once again, and his eye for a point is impressive as he notched another 0-4 in Walsh Park.

13. Mark Kehoe Rating: 7/10 For 50 minutes, Kehoe put in a vey effective and lively performance as he had the Waterford full back line under massive pressure. His movement is really impressive and he seems to be bringing his outstanding Fitzgibbon Cup form to bear for Tipp. Scored some lovely points and seems likely to make that next step as a consistent starter.
