Same again for settled Cork side

As expected Cork manager John Allen has made no changes to his side to face Waterford in Sunday's All-Ireland hurling semi-final.

Neil Ronan retains his place in the half-forward line alongside Timmy and Niall McCarthy after an impressive display against Limerick in the quarter-finals.

Waterford are expected to name their team this evening but have injury worries with both Paul Flynn and Dave Bennett rated as doubtful for the clash.

Team captain Flynn, continues to be troubled by a hernia problem, while Bennett is also a doubt having being carried off with ankle ligament damage in the quarter-final.

Cork team: D Óg Cusack; B Murphy, D O'Sullivan, P Mulcahy; J Gardiner, R Curran, S Óg Ó hAilpín; T Kenny, J O'Connor; T McCarthy, N McCarthy, N Ronan; B O'Connor, B Corcoran, J Deane.

Replacements: M Coleman, W Sherlock, C O'Connor, P Kelly, K Hartnett, K Murphy (Sarsfields), K Murphy (Erin's Own), C Naughton, C Cusack, P Cronin, A Nash, S O'Neill, C McGann, K Cronin.
