Hurling and Football teams named for Sunday pre-season outings

Waterford hurling manager Davy Fitzgerald has named his team to take on Tipperary in the second round of the Munster hurling league.

Fitzgerald has called for one change to the team that beat Kerry earlier this week with Mairtín Power wearing the number 7 jersey in place of Jack Fagan.

A win for the Déíse on Sunday will book them a place in the final of this pre-season competition where Clare, Cork or Limerick could lie in wait.

  1. Shaun O Brien
  2. Conor Prunty
  3. Mark Fitzgerald
  4. Brian Looby
  5. PJ Fanning
