Kilkenny make three changes for hurling decider replay

Kilkenny have named their team for the All-Ireland senior hurling final replay against Tipperary this Saturday.

Manager Brian Cody has decided to shuffle his pack a bit ahead of the much anticipated re-match on Saturday at HQ. While Eamon O'Shea didn't alter his Tipp team, Kilkenny will look to find a 10th All-Ireland win for their manager with a slightly different XV. Two Cats who had below par showings three weeks ago, Joey Holden and Walter Walsh, make way for Padraig Walsh and John Power. The other change sees Brian Hogan make way for Kieran Joyce. After much speculation about a return for Tommy Walsh, or even Henry Shefflin, they remain on the bench. It was the Kilkenny half-back line that struggled most against Tipp in the drawn game so Cody has addressed that with two changes.
