Offaly hurling team announced for Croke Park clash with Dublin

The Offaly Senior Hurling team has been announced for Saturday's pivotal Croke Park showdown with Dublin in the league. 

Manager Johnny Kelly has made one change to the starting 15 from the side that impressively saw off Antrim in the last round.  Sam Bourke comes in at corner-back in place of Padraig Cantwell. Bourke inclusion means there are seven Durrow players in the starting 15.

Offaly are currently top of the Division 1B table with two wins and a draw from their three games but Dublin have only played two games and have won both so this is an important game for both sides.
