Dunne back to lead Tipp’s final charge

TIPPERARY have given former Hurler of the Year Tommy Dunne his first start of the NHL campaign for Sunday’s meeting with table toppers Waterford (Thurles, 3.30pm).

All-Ireland winning captain Dunne, who is skipper again this season, came on as a half-time substitute for Lar Corbett last weekend and retains his place at Corbett’s expense.

Otherwise Ken Hogan’s side is unchanged from the team that secured victory over Galway.
