Power and Fennelly back with Cats

Two-time All Star Richie Power is back in training with Kilkenny after an extended break from the panel.

The 28-year-old’s return to the squad is a major boost to the Cats as they also welcome back 2011 hurler of the year Michael Fennelly who spent three months in Australia.

There had been conjecture Power’s absence from the Kilkenny set-up was an indefinite one as he wasn’t part of the 40-strong panel, which commenced training in November.
