Liam Cahill makes five changes to Tipp team ahead of Waterford visit to Thurles

Liam Cahill names strong Tipp team ahead of Waterford visit to Thurles

Experimentation continues for Tipperary's hurlers as senior boss Liam Cahill has made five changes to the team for this evening's visit of Waterford in round 4 of the National Hurling League in FBD Semple Stadium.

Rhys Shelly, Eoghan Connolly, Patrick Maher, Seamus Callanan, and team captain Noel McGrath all come into the line up which started against Dublin in round 3.

Bryan O'Mara remains at full back after debutising in the position against the Dubs two weekends ago, while Seamus Kennedy moves back the pitch to wing back after starting all his games at wing forward so far in 2023, with Dan McCormack moving into the half forward to accommodate Noel McGrath at midfield.

Waterford have also named their team for the game and are coming all guns blazing as they have selected a very strong starting team for the game, with Tadhg De Burca named to start his first game of the year, while Dessie Hutchinson also returns along with the talismanic figure of Austin Gleeson.

The game gets underway this evening in FBD Semple Stadium at 7.30pm and is being shown live on TG4. See teams below.
