Kilkenny make one change for All-Ireland Minor Semi-Final clash with Waterford
The Cats face the Deise live on TG4 this Saturday evening
Kilkenny minor manager Niall Bergin has made one alteration to his team for tomorrow night's All-Ireland Semi-Final clash with Waterford.
Emeralds player Darragh Hickey comes into the team at corner back in place of David McGee (O'Loughlin Gaels) who misses out altogether.
The Cats go into the game as defending Leinster champions and they will be looking to advance to the All-ireland decider for the second year on the trot.
The Noresiderds will go into the game as favourites but after only narrowly losing out in the Munster Final and defeating Limerick since then, the Deise will be stubborn opposition.
The game takes place in Chadwicks Wexford Park where there is a 7.35pm throw-in (Live on TG4).
Kilkenny team to face Waterford- Jake O'Doherty (Mooncoin), Oisin Henderson (Dicksboro), Larry Phelan (James Stephens), Darragh Hickey (Emeralds); Ben Nevin (Thomastown), Josh Dowling (Erin's Own), PJ Mackey (Rower Inistioge); Diarmuid Behan (James Stephens), Brian Hickey (Dunnamaggin); Kevin Buggy (Erin's Own), Ollie O'Donovan (John Lockes), Jake Mullen (Shamrocks Ballyhale); Eoin Brennan (Erin's Own), Conor Holohan (O'Loughlin Gaels), Cian Byrne (O'Loughlin Gaels).
