Bill Cooper starts as Cork make just one change for Waterford replay

Cian McCarthy drops to the bench as the Rebels gear up for the replay at Semple Stadium.

CORK MANAGER JIMMY Barry-Murphy and his selectors have made just one change to their starting team for the Munster Hurling Senior Championship quarter-final replay against Waterford on Sunday.

Youghal man Bill Cooper comes into the half-forward line in place of Cian McCarthy, who drops onto the bench. Cooper scored a 1-01 as a replacement in the side’s first meeting.

The Rebels played out a thrilling 1-21 to 1-21 draw with the Déise in Semple Stadium, Thurles last time out, but Barry-Murphy will be expecting a more convincing performance from his players in the replay.

Cork’s selectors have announced that they had a full panel of players to select from for the replay, barring long-term injury absentee Luke O’Farrell. Led by captain Patrick Cronin, the players will be keen to repay the management’s faith on Sunday (throw-in 3.30pm).
