Limerick select big names in starting side, Kilkenny include TJ Reid on bench

Páirc Uí Chaoimh hosts Sunday’s game.

LIMERICK AND KILKENNY have named their starting sides for Sunday’s Allianz Division 1 hurling league final in Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

Limerick boss John Kiely has brought experienced figures Dan Morrissey, Kyle Hayes, Darragh O’Donovan, Gearoid Hegarty and Seamus Flanagan into his starting fifteen.

From the team that defeated Tipperary in the semi-final, William O’Donoghue misses out through suspension, while Mike Casey, Colin Coughlan, Tom Morrissey and Donnacha Ó Dálaigh are all on the bench.

Ballyhale attacking stars are in the frame for Kilkenny with Adrian Mullen and captain Eoin Cody both starting, while TJ Reid is a major addition on the bench. 

From the team that defeated Cork in the semi-final, Richie Reid is another player from the Shamrocks drafted in to start, as is Graigue-Ballycallan’s Billy Ryan.

Darragh Corcoran, Timmy Clifford, Alan Murphy and Richie Hogan all make way.
