DECLAN HANNON will be unavailable for Limerick despite hopes of a return, while David Blanchfield has won his fitness race to get the nod in the Kilkenny side for Sunday’s All-Ireland SHC final (throw-in: 3.30pm).
Derek Lyng has named an unchanged team from the win over Clare, with the wing-back included despite being an injury doubt.
Limerick have also named an unchanged side from their defeat of Galway, albeit with a few positional switches.
William O’Donoghue moves to centre-back with Kyle Hayes selected on the wing and Gearóid Hegarty starting at wing forward.
Captain Cian Lynch makes up the midfield alongside Darragh O’Donovan, while David Reidy will operate at centre forward.
