CORK HAVE NAMED their starting XV for the re-fixed McGrath Cup Round 2 game with Waterford on Thursday evening.
The game, originally due to be played on Sunday, was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch and Cork’s new manager Peadar Healy has made a number of changes from the side named for that fixture.
Cobh’s Kieran Histon, who was not named among the 23 for Sunday’s game, comes into the full-back line while Mark Collins drops out of the half-back line to be replaced by Tom Clancy.
Brian Hurley and Peter Kelleher are both named among the full-forwards with Dan McEoin and Seamus Hickey dropping to the bench.
Throw-in at Mallow is at 8pm.
