Aylward opts for unchanged line-up

BALLYHALE Shamrocks boss Maurice Aylward has named an unchanged team for Saturday’s AIB All-Ireland club hurling final at Croke Park.

Aylward has decided to stick with the same 15 that started the thrilling semi-final victory over Toomevara – but he admitted he had some serious thinking to do over one or two positions.

Seventeen year-old Colin Fennelly and David Hoyne both extremely did well when they made substitute appearances against Toomevara but Aylward has decided not to tinker with his staring line-up.
