The Tipperary senior hurling team has been named ahead of Sunday’s All-Ireland semi-final.
Liam Cahill has named an unchanged starting fifteen and match day 26 from the Galway game for the clash with Kilkenny.
Eight of Tipperary’s starting fifteen will be playing in Croke Park for the first time on Sunday.
Wing back Craig Morgan is one of those, but he says the routine won’t change for the game:
“As a young fella growing up you’re looking at these big games in Croke Park and you’re dreaming of playing there.
“It is nice personally to think I will get the opportunity to play there but at the end of the day it is just another pitch, it’s juts another field, it’s a game of hurling, the same game as what we have played so far so nothing changes that way and you’ll still approach the game the same way.
“It’s just sticking to the routine that we have had all along.”
Meanwhile, Kilkenny have made two changes from the Leinster final starting fifteen.
Two-time young hurler of the year Eoin Cody returns from injury to start at corner forward in place of Stephen Donnelly whilst Shane Murphy comes in at corner back for Tommy Walsh.
Sunday’s game is live here on Tipp FM with thanks to The Arch Bar & De Faoite Restaurant, Liberty Square, Thurles.
