Brendan Maher: Tipp can take nothing for granted, even after All-Ireland glory

Former All-Ireland winning Tipperary captain Brendan Maher has warned that there are no guarantees his county will even advance beyond the Munster championship in 2026.

Maher captained Tipp to success in 2016 and was on the team that won again in 2019 but the county suffered a considerable dip immediately afterwards, failing to make it back to Croke Park until this summer.
