Limerick cameo reassured Noel McGrath he can still compete at top level

The four-time All-Ireland medallist didn't play much this spring, but against Limerick in late February, he was Tipp's best performer.

Noel McGrath says the strong form he displayed during his single start for Tipperary this year has reassured him that he'll be ready to go if called upon this weekend.

The veteran attacker was used mainly as an impact sub in last year's successful Championship campaign, and it's been the same so far this year.
