Hurling greats meet modern stars as McGrath and Ormond reveal their top Premier County XV

Tipperary hurling stars John McGrath and Andrew Ormond helped mark the launch of the new O'Neills Tipperary jersey with a special feature that is already sparking debate across the county, their selection of the Top 15 Tipperary hurlers of all time.

As part of the jersey unveiling, the duo revealed the players they believe best represent the tradition, passion and class of Tipperary hurling. Their final XV includes legends from every era, blending household names with modern-day heroes to showcase the extraordinary depth of talent produced in the Premier County.

Supporters can watch the video to see each position unveiled, along with McGrath and Ormond’s thoughts on the hurlers who inspired them and shaped the county’s proud story. From iconic defenders and commanding midfielders to some of the greatest forwards ever to play the game, their choices highlight the standards Tipp hurlers have set across generations.

Tying in seamlessly with the launch of the new jersey — a design that honours the county’s heritage while embracing its future — the feature celebrates both the legends of the past and the players carrying that tradition forward today.
