Liam Cahill said Noel McGrath committing to the Tipperary hurling squad for a 17th season in 2025 is a "big boost" for him. "It also reinforces the confidence Noel McGrath has in myself and this management team that we're on the right path to trying to turn the tide here in Tipperary," Cahill told Tipp FM's Across the Line.
While McGrath will be involved with Tipperary next year, others will not. Some due to decisions by management, such as Cathal Barrett and Barry Heffernan, while others like Mark Kehoe have decided to spend time travelling.
