He owes Tipp nothing.
Eoin Kelly took all the plaudits this evening after he announced his inter-county retirement and there’s no doubt that he has earned every back-slap, doffed-cap and free pint that’s sure to come his way over the winter.
Thanks for the memories, Eoin.
Never to be replaced, was a dream come true to hurl with a childhood hero, the best we've seen #Ek13

Farewell then, Eoin Kelly. Scoring machine, best Tipp player since Nicky English and – 'cos this is important too – great fun.

I never thought I'd see a more iconic Tipp hurler than Nicky English when I was a kid…Eoin Kelly brought it to a whole new level#genius
