Tipperary legend Eoin Kelly calls time on phenomenal inter-county career

Again, we're left to rue the departure of another star of our game but at least we can marvel over what has been a sensational career.

Eoin Kelly announced his retirement from inter-county hurling this evening on RTÉ News. Double All-Ireland winner Kelly has called time on what has been a phenomenal stint at the top with Tipperary. The legendary forward captained the Premier County to their last Liam McCarthy success in 2010 after originally clinching glory as a teenager back in 2001. Kelly bows out as the country's third all time top scorer, only behind Kilkenny duo Henry Shefflin and Eddie Keher.
