TIPPERARY FOOTBALL MANAGER David Power has named an unchanged starting team to face Mayo in Sunday’s All-Ireland semi-final [throw-in 3.30pm, live on RTÉ 2 and Sky Sports Mix].
Having been pitched into the starting side as a late change before the Munster final, Sydney Swans Aussie Rules star Colin O’Riordan is named in the half-forward line after making a huge impact there against Cork as the Premier landed their first senior provincial crown in 85 years.
With positive news on the injury recovery of Jack Kennedy shared recently, Power has added the Clonmel Commercials forward to his bench for the Croke Park showdown.
Kennedy scored 0-5 earlier in the Munster championship, in from the start against against both Clare and Limerick. Another recent injury victim, Riain Quigley, hasn’t made the 26 though.
Steven O’Brien starts in midfield once again, having made his comeback against the Rebels last time out, with recent scoring heroes Conor Sweeney (captain), Michael Quinlivan and Brian Fox all named in attack.
