Laois senior hurling manager Tommy Fitzgerald has named his starting 15 and substitutes for Sunday’s Joe McDonagh Cup final against Kildare in Croke Park.
It took a goal with the last puck of the game against Carlow to secure Laois’ place in the decider. Fitzgerald has made three changes to the team that started that dramatic clash. The Harps’ Cody Comerford, Rosenallis’ Fiachra C-Fennell, and Camross’ Mark Dowling have been named in the starting 15, replacing Donnchadh Hartnett, John Lennon, and Cha Dwyer, the latter no longer part of the panel.

Subs: Eoin Fleming (Borris-Kilcotton), Padraic Dunne (The Harps), Donnchadh Hartnett (Rosenallis), Jordan Walshe (Clough-Ballacolla), John Lennon (Rosenallis), James Keyes (Colt-Shanahoe), Martin Phelan (Castletown), Aaron Dunphy (Borris-Kilcotton), James Duggan (The Harps), PJ Scully (Borris-Kilcotton), Colin Byrne (Abbeyleix St Lazarian's).
