Brian Cody has named his Kilkenny side to face Dublin this Saturday.
The game will be broadcast live on KCLR Scoreline from 3.30 pm.
It’s the first Kilkenny senior outing since last November’s All-Ireland semi-final defeat at the hands of Waterford and also the first Kilkenny side named without Paul Murphy, Ger Aylward and Colin Fennelly at the disposal of Cody and his backroom team.
Stepping into the fold include Ciaran Wallace (Erin’s Own), Ballyhale’s Darragh Corcoran and Conahy’s James Bergin.
New captain Adrian Mullen is expected to start with clubmates TJ Reid and Eoin Cody leading the line.
