TIPPERARY MANAGER MICHAEL Ryan has named his team for Saturday’s All-Ireland senior hurling championship qualifier against Dublin.
The reigning All-Ireland champions have made two changes for this weekend’s round two clash at Semple Stadium, with Jason Forde and John McGrath handed starting berths.
The pair are rewarded for cameos off the bench during the victory over Westmeath last weekend and replace Noel McGrath and the injured Niall O’Meara in the starting XV.
Loughmore-Castleiney forward McGrath scored 1-1 in the last round while Forde ended the game with two points as Ryan’s side safely negotiated the first qualifying hurdle.
