Five-time Limerick All-Ireland winning hurler Graeme Mulcahy has announced his inter-county retirement.

The 34-year-old forward spent 16 seasons in the green and white, making his debut in 2009 as a substitute against Kilkenny in the Allianz League before going on to win five All-Ireland medals, seven Munster titles, three Allianz Leagues and an All-Star in 2018.

“After 16 seasons, I have decided that the time is right for me to announce my retirement from inter county hurling,” the Kilmallock clubman said in a statement released through Limerick GAA’s official website.

“To have been entrusted to represent Limerick by the numerous management teams and sharing the dressing room with all my past and current team-mates has been a great honour. I leave with fantastic memories, lifelong friends and an immense pride in what we have achieved.

“The highlight of my playing career was undoubtedly being apart of the team that ended the 45 years wait to bring the Liam McCarthy Cup back to Limerick. Coming back to the county with the Cup is something I will treasure forever. I will always be very grateful to John and his management team for allowing me to play a part in that.”
