Brendan Maher has been just one of those to attest to how empowering it was to receive a phone call before the season started from the man who had managed Tipp to All-Ireland glory in 2010. John McGrath explained yesterday how some ‘home truths’ from Sheedy had set him up for a restorative year in the blue and gold.
