Rory Maguire returns to the Cork team for Saturday’s All-Ireland SFC Group 3 opener against Clare in Cusack Park.

The Castlehaven man missed out on the Munster campaign but comes into the half-back line for Luke Fahy who suffered a hamstring injury in a recent challenge game.

The team is otherwise the same from the side that lost to Kerry by three points in last month’s provincial semi-final in Killarney.

Meanwhile, Clare go with the same 15 that began their Munster final loss to Kerry in Ennis last Sunday week.

Their hurlers introduce Darragh Lohan for Cian Galvin as their one change from the defeat of Cork for Sunday’s Munster SHC Round 4 clash with Waterford. Tony Kelly is among the substitutes having missed out on that previous game.

Waterford, meanwhile, bring in Jack Fagan for injured Conor Prunty.
