New-look hurlers ready for student test

Dublin hurling manager, Ger Cunningham, has named a new-look Dublin team for Tuesday night’s Bord na Móna Walsh Cup clash with DIT in Parnell Park (7.30).

It contains plenty of experience as well as some fresh faces and also some interesting positional selections.

Liam Rushe has been posted at full-forward a position he played occasionally in during his senior career but one he was more familiar with during his underage minor days while Michael Carton is named at full-back, John McCaffrey at right full-back with Peter Kelly at No 6.
