Walsh gets full-forward slot for Rebels’ clash with Limerick

Aidan Walsh has been handed his first start for the Cork senior hurlers as they face Limerick in tomorrow night’s Division 1B league opener at Páirc Uí Rinn.

Walsh, who has already lined out with Brian Cuthbert’s footballers this spring, is selected at full-forward alongside Patrick Horgan and Stephen Moylan. Fellow dual star Eoin Cadogan is listed among the substitutes.

Manager Jimmy Barry-Murphy has named 10 of the side that started in last September’s All-Ireland final reply defeat to Clare. Shane O’Neill is selected in the right corner of defence with Stephen McDonnell moving to edge of the square. The other positional switch of note from that loss is Conor Lehane’s placing at wing-forward.
