NOEL McGRATH WILL captain the Tipperary hurlers in 2023, with new manager Liam Cahill naming a 40-man pre-National League panel.
The three-time All Star first joined the Tipperary panel in 2009 and has represented the Premier 136 times across League and Championship to date.
The Loughmore-Castleiney clubman was part of All-Ireland-winning Tipperary teams in 2010, 2016 and 2019 and won Munster Championship medals in 2009, 2011, 2012 and 2016.
Ronan Maher of Thurles Sarsfields has been named vice-captain for the 2023 campaign.

Absolutely baffled how half a season Howe is ahead of Moyes or Arteta.
The English at it again.
@Seàn Pòl O’Maolain: def moyes should be ahead of Howe. Mane instead of Saka or if not mane then Ronaldo ahead of Saka
@Cormac Flanagan: u can’t disrespect Artetas achievement either. Youngest squad in PL and about to get 4th with his level of experience is an excellent achievement.
@Seàn Pòl O’Maolain: that’s true I suppose. You’d wonder the criteria for been nominated.
Son for me..terrific player..he has great stats for a team that can be hit or miss.
Saka! Seriously??
Man you actually forget how good Son is. Seems to just play his football in the long grass almost anonymous and is only one goal behind Salah in the charts. Happy to say 2 of the 3 most likely to win it (you’d imagine Salah, Son, KDB) came from Bundesliga beginnings. Prem is obviously superior for a number of reasons, but it’s crazy how the German league is regarded as a ‘farmers league’ by so many, yet it probably produces the best talent for the BPL.
I’d go Son and Vierra. Salah over Mane?? Not sure about that.
@John Quinn: is that the Salah with the most goals and most assists in the league?
@Gareth Keenan: I’m a Liverpool fan and he’s been cat since Egypt missed out on the World Cup. I hope it’s just the new contract on his mind. Mane has got the more important goals and given a full shift in every game. Just my opinion mind.
Here’s hoping either bang in a few in the Cup Finals.
Has to be KDB his playing brilliant stuff in Premier ship.
KDB and Frank
Son for me. Good attitude, work ethic, and unbelievable skill. Constantly surprised the big big clubs aren’t throwing money at him and spurs to get him. He’d fit into any team.
Saka in there is a bit of a farce. He’s been good but tell me he’s had a better season than DeGea. United would be in 14th without him
@Ray Taff: Saka is 19 years old. He has 11 goals and 6 assists. Pulling the string for an exceptionally young team. Can u name another 19 year old in the premier league that’s better? I can’t! Wonder how good he might be with more exp and a better team supplying him?
@Seàn Pòl O’Maolain: You’ve mentioned 19 years old twice. He’s in there ahead of Mane too who’s been better than Salah in my opinion. Young player of the year I couldn’t argue but this is beyond a joke
