LAST UPDATE | 19 Jun 2018

CORK HAVE CALLED on six players who togged out in the senior hurling championship win over Waterford on Sunday for what they hope will be a repeat result in tomorrow’s Bord Gáis Energy Munster U21HC semi-final.

Mark Coleman, Darragh Fitzgibbon, Jack O’Connor and U21 captain Shane Kingston all played a part in the 1-23 to 1-20  senior win over the Deise, while David Griffin and Tim O’Mahony were unused subs in Thurles.

Wing-forward Robbie O’Flynn started in Cork’s opening round win over Clare, brings the number of senior representatives up to seven in Denis Ring’s U21 outfit.

Kingston will lead his side from wing forward in Pairc Ui Chaoimh, with Coleman moving in to centre half back and vice-captain Darragh Fitzgibbon starting in midfield for his county for the second time in four days.

Waterford can call on two players who started in the 2016 All-Ireland U21 final victory. Centre-back Jordan Henley, who played in goal in that win over Galway two years ago, and full-forward Darragh Lyons, who started corner-back, are the two survivors.

Centre-forward Peter Hogan came on as a substitute in that victory in Semple Stadium.
