Cork and Waterford name sides for Sunday's hurling clash in Dungarvan

The teams meet at the Fraher Field in pre-season action.

THE CORK AND Waterford hurling managements are both set to give members of their squad the chance to impress as their pre-season preparations continue when they face off on Sunday afternoon.

Experienced players Eoin Cadogan, Bill Cooper, Aidan Walsh and Conor Lehane all come into the Cork side for the trip to Dungarvan while Seamus Harnedy is an addition on the bench.

Goalkeeper Ger Collins and defender Sean O’Leary-Hayes, both members of the U20 team that contested last August’s All-Ireland decider, are handed starting spots. Attacker Jack O’Connor, who won a county U21 medal with his club Sarsfields last Sunday, is named at corner-forward.

Cork defeated Kerry in their opening Co-Op Superstores Munster hurling league encounter before Christmas, running out 1-27 to 0-11 victors in Mallow.

Liam Cahill has also unveiled his selection for his first game in charge of Waterford. Jake Dillon returns after being marked absent this year while Iarlaith Daly, Kieran Power, Neil Montgomery and Jack Fagan are the newcomers handed debuts.
