Browne and Mullane return for Waterford

TONY BROWNE and John Mullane will make their first start in this season’s Allianz NHL when Waterford play host to Offaly at Walsh Park on Sunday.

Former Allstar Browne is included at midfield with Mullane operating on the right flank of attack. They replace Aidan Kearney, who is on the sick list at present, and James Nagle.

Meanwhile Limerick have wielded the axe following last weekend’s shock defeat by Dublin for Sunday’s clash with Antrim at the Gaelic Grounds.
