All-Ireland winning manager Liam Sheedy has led the tributes to Tipperary hurler Bonner Maher following the retirement of the Lorrha-Dorrha hurler.

"What a role model and his presence on the pitch and in the dressing room was just immense," the 2010 and 2019 All-Ireland winning manager said. 

Former Tipperary hurler Micheal Webster said on the X platform that Bonner was a "real team player who inspired so many young players by showing that hard graft pays off" highlighting the effort the Tipperary hurler had made over many decades. 

"Bonner Maher was a true warrior," Kieran Tuohy said online. Check out some of the other tributes below:
