John Kiely makes one change for Tipperary showdown | TEAM NEWS

Kiely has opted to make change to the team that started against the Banner, with Sean Finn coming in for Mike Casey, who suffered a hamstring injury last week.

John Kiely has named his Limerick side to take on Tipperary in the second round of the Munster Hurling Championship on Sunday at 4pm in the TUS Gaelic Grounds.

The Shannonsiders won their opening game against Clare in Ennis last weekend, despite trailing by nine points at one stage in the second half.

Kiely has been forced to make change to the team that started against the Banner, with Sean Finn coming in for Mike Casey, who suffered a hamstring injury last week.

Declan Hannon captains the side from centre-back, with Cathal O’Neill joining Will O’Donoghue in the middle of the park. Darragh O’Donovan misses out through injury once more.

Nickie Quaid starts in goal, with Barry Nash and Dan Morrissey joining Finn in the full-back line.

Hannon is named at six, flanked by Diarmaid Byrnes and Kyle Hayes.

O’Neill partners O’Donoghue in midfield, with David Reidy named at centre-forward. Last week’s Man of the Match Gearoid Hegarty and Tom Morrissey assume their familiar half-forward roles, with Seamus Flanagan named at full-forward.

The Shannonsiders carry immense threat in the corners, as Aaron Gillane demonstrated with his performance last Sunday. Cian Lynch, who was so impressive last weekend, is named in the other corner.
