Tipp captain not named in starting fifteen for Munster U21 final after recent injury

The Premier have made two changes for tonight’s EirGrid Munster U21 football final.

TIPPERARY CAPTAIN COLIN O’Riordan has not been named in their starting team for tonight’s EirGrid Munster U21 football final against Cork.

O’Riordan suffered injury and subsequent concussion in a recent senior league game for Tipperary against Sligo, which made him a doubt for the U21 showdown.

The Tipperary management have not named him in their starting fifteen with full-forward John McGrath also set to miss out due to injury.

Luke Boland comes into the team in the half-back line after being selected at centre-back while Ross Mulcahy switches to right half-back.

The other addition sees Kevin O’Halloran drafted into the team at right corner-forward.
