Brian Cody makes five changes for Clare clash

Jackie Tyrrell, TJ Reid, and Richie Hogan come into the Kilkenny team among five changes for tomorrow’s Allianz HL Division 1 semi-final with Clare in Semple Stadium (throw-in 4pm).

Having shuffled his pack for the quarter-final victory over Offaly, Cats manager Brian Cody has again changed things, though some of the switches are injury-enforced.

Tyrrell and Joey Holden are chosen in the full-back line as Paul Murphy and Robert Lennon are ruled out, while Pádraig Walsh’s selection at right half-back allows Cillian Brennan to parent Lester Ryan at midfield, with Michael Fennelly missing out.
