Great to see him back, and pucking about, so soon.

The Tipperary welcomed forward Noel McGrath back into the fold for a training session.

McGrath, who recently underwent surgery for testicular cancer a couple of months ago, was pictured at taking part in a Tuesday evening training session in Thurles.

Shane Stapleton, from The Star, tweeted a picture of the Loughmore-Castleiney man running through some drills.

McGrath is not expected to feature in Tipp’s upcoming Munster SHC clash with Limerick but could be on the sideline as part of the backroom staff.

A player who will certainly miss this weekend’s game is Limerick’s Seanie Tobin.

His appeal against a red card, picked up against Clare in May, has been dismissed.
