Cody makes six changes for Wexford clash

Brian Cody has made six changes to the Kilkenny team to play Wexford in the Allianz Hurling League in Nowlan Park on Sunday at 2.30pm.

P.J. Ryan, Noel Hickey and Eoin Larkin all make their first League appearance of the year while T.J. Reid, Paul Murphy and John Dalton are also included in the starting 15.
