Stapleton back for Premier
The selection of the Borrisoleigh man at right corner-back sees John O’Keeffe move to right half-back with Toomevara’s David Young the player to make way. Stapleton featured in the Munster quarter-final win over Cork but was unable to start in the semi-final win over Clare due to injury. He was introduced at half-time of that game and his return is the only change made to the starting 15 by manager Declan Ryan.
TIPPERARY (SH v Waterford): B Cummins; P Stapleton, P Curran, M Cahill; J O’Keeffe, C O’Mahony, Padraic Maher; G Ryan, S McGrath; S Callanan, N McGrath, Patrick Maher; E Kelly, J O’Brien, L Corbett.
