McGrath has previously served as a Waterford senior selector alongside Michael Ryan, while Shanahan worked with the Waterford seniors during Derek McGrath’s time in charge.
Moloney teamed up with Colm Bonnar to help Ballyhale Shamrocks win the All-Ireland senior club hurling title in 2015. Moran retired in November 2021 after an illustrious Waterford hurling playing career that lasted 16 seasons.
During their playing days the quartet won a combined 11 Munster senior hurling medals with Waterford and eight All-Star awards.
