Many tributes have been paid on Twitter to Tipperary All-Ireland winning defender Conor O'Mahony, who announced his inter-county retirement this morning.

As well as winning a Celtic Cross in 2010, the Newport clubman garnered five Munster SHC medals and two All Star awards (2008 and '09) during his decade-long stint in the blue and gold.
