No changes for Tipperary ahead of Kilkenny clash

Eamon O’Shea and his selectors have kept faith with the team that beat Clare.

AFTER BEATING ALL-IRELAND champions Clare in the semi-final, Eamon O’Shea and his selectors have kept faith with the same XV as they get set to take on Kilkenny in the Allianz National Hurling League Division 1 final tomorrow.

Séamus Callanan will start at full-forward and will hope to add to the 5-52 he’s already scored in the in league this year.

Throw-in tomorrow is 3.30pm.
