TIPPERARY BOSS MICHAEL Ryan has handed debuts to John Meagher, Willie Ryan & Tommy Heffernan for their trip to play Cork on Sunday.

The Premier also welcome All-Ireland winning goalkeeper Darren Gleeson back to the team for the first time this league campaign.

Gleeson comes in for Darragh Mooney, while John O’Keeffe, Ronan Maher, Michael Breen, Noel McGrath and John O’Dwyer make way.

Meanwhile Cork boss Kieran Kingston has also named his team for the tie.

The Rebels are coming off the back of an impressive 1-21 to 1-13 win over the Deise, and Kingston has opted to start with the same 15 that lined out against Waterford.

There’s a couple of positional changes, as Bill Cooper moves to wing-forward and Dean Brosnan reverts to midfield.
