The Durrow trio of Brian Duignan, Ciaran Burke and Ross Ravenhill are named to start for Offaly tomorrow.
NEW Offaly senior hurling manager Johnny Kelly has fielded a fairly well established team for Sunday's Walsh Cup opener against Kilkenny in Callan but also availed of the opportunity to experiment – 2022 Offaly hurler of the year and an established forward Jason Sampson has been named at the fulcrum of the defence at centre half back.
