CORK HAVE MADE four changes from last Friday’s McGrath Cup final win for next Sunday’s Allianz league opener against Mayo.
After that victory over Clare, manager Peadar Healy has shaken his side up for the Division 1 game in Páirc Uí Rinn.
Jamie O’Sullivan comes into the defence at corner-back instead of Kieran Histon, who drops to the bench, while the other three changes are in attack.
Andrew O’Sullivan and Luke Connolly are named to start in the wing-forward slots and Peter Kelleher gets the nod to play at the edge of the square. Those three players all came on as substitutes against the Banner.
Kevin O’Driscoll, Ruairi Deane and Dan McEoin are the players to drop out of the attack.
There’s only seven survivors from the Cork team that started in last July’s All-Ireland qualifier loss to Kildare – Ken O’Halloran, Colm O’Driscoll, Eoin Cadogan, Jamie O’Sullivan, James Loughrey, Mark Collins and Paul Kerrigan.
