Waterford make three changes for league final clash with Cork

Calum Lyons takes Austin Gleeson’s place in midfield.

WATERFORD HAVE MADE THREE changes for Saturday’s meeting with Cork [throw-in 7.15pm, live on TG4].

The final two teams in Division 1 of the Allianz Hurling League meet in Semple Stadium this weekend. Liam Cahill’s outfit are without Austin Gleeson after he was sent off during their semi-final win over Wexford. The county did not appeal the decision.  

Calum Lyons takes his place in midfield, where he will partner Darragh Lyons. There is no place for Iarlath Daly with Conor Prunty set to start at full-back.

The final change sees Stephen Bennett start with Colin Dunford dropping out. 

 

Meanwhile, Cork welcome Seamus Harnedy back into their team as one of three changes by manager Kieran Kingston. Shane Kingston drops to the bench.

The other two changes come in the defence as Tim O’Mahony and Sean O’Donoghue start in place of Niall O’Leary and Daire O’Leary.
