Teams named for Dublin-Kilkenny clash

For Saturday's Leinster SHC semi-final against Dublin, Kilkenny have made four personnel changes to the team that won the All-Ireland SHC title last September.

Cats boss Brian Cody has named a formidable line-up for his side's debut in the 2012 Championship, with all bar one line containing personnel from their 33rd All-Ireland triumph.

Dunnamaggin's David Herity continues between the posts, with Paul Murphy, JJ Delaney and Jackie Tyrrell forming the full-back line.

All-Stars Tommy Walsh and Brian Hogan partner debutant Richie Doyle in the half-backs, and there is a new look midfield with Under-21 player Cillian Buckley partnering Paddy Hogan.

Up front the reigning champions boast plenty of experience with centre-forward TJ Reid flanked by Henry Shefflin and captain Eoin Larkin.

The full-forward line offers a youthful yet potent mix with Richie Power named at full-forward alongside Colin Fennelly and Richie Hogan.

Meanwhile, Ryan O'Dwyer returns for Dublin in the only change to their starting line-up from their comfortable victory over Laois.

The Tipperary native missed the opening round win over the O'Moore men due to suspension. He comes back into the full-forward line at the expense of David Treacy.
