This Sunday, Waterford begin the defence of their league title with Dublin coming to Fraher Field.

A long winter has ended and the smell of spring in the air signals the return of the league. With that turn of the seasons, comes the positivity and expectation of what might be.

Plenty of talk has circulated about Waterford's chances this year and what we might be able to expect from the returning Davy Fitzgerald.

The wait for games is almost over and on Sunday afternoon in Fraher Field, Fitzgerald's team will take to the pitch at the Dungarvan venue.
