Kilkenny shuffle the pack for final
Jackie Tyrrell is named at midfield in place of the injured Michael Fennelly, while Derek Lyng is recalled at centre-forward. Richie Power comes back after injury at right corner-forward. It means Michael Rice and Richie Hogan lose out in attack.
The positional alterations see Tyrrell moving from left corner-back, replaced by John Dalton who drops back from the left wing. Filling his position will be PJ Delaney, one of several substitutes used in the last game.
