…he is the current senior manager of the Clonmel Commercials senior team, as well as selector under Tipp bainisteoir David Power… McGeever stayed on as manager of Clonmel Commercials this season. He has a close affinity with the players having coached the majority of them since they were Under 14. He has since led them to four senior county titles, including this year when they defeated Loughmore–Castleiney on a scoreline of 1–16 to 1–15. His son Cathal came on as a sub in that game.
