Conor Ryan and Gavin Fives will make their first starts for the Déise hurlers in tomorrow's Allianz NHL Round 3 clash against Antrim in Fraher Field.

Both start in the Waterford defence in a team that shows seven changes from the side that defeated Laois by twelve points two weeks ago.

Waterford are unbeaten going into the game with one win and a draw against Dublin on the opening day. Last season in Belfast, Waterford edged out Antrim in a tough battle.

Davy Fitzgerald is without a number of key players due to injuries and also Michael Kiely who misses the game through suspension.
