'Tullamore atmosphere will add bite to Dublin v Galway replay' - Niall Corcoran

Dublin corner-back Niall Corcoran believes the atmosphere in Tullamore will bring an extra "bite" to proceedings when Dublin and Galway's Leinster hurling championship replay throws-in on Saturday. 

Speaking to Newstalk's Oisin Langan midway through a six-day turnaround between original match and renewal of hostilities, he said: "Croke Park, the last day, was probably a little bit flat in terms of the atmosphere and playing before the footballers, when the crowds were still coming in. I think Tullamore will be a different atmosphere. We're hoping for a huge crowd. In Tullamore, the crowd's almost on the pitch so it's a completely different atmosphere and I think it will add to the occasion and brings that bit of bite and championship feel to the players on the pitch." 

Corcoran also expects key players to emerge on both sides to settle the contest once and for all and you can listen to the full interview via the audio player:
