No TJ Reid as Brian Cody rings the changes for Kilkenny's clash with Antrim

The Kilkenny senior hurling team has been named for Sunday's clash with Antrim at UPMC Nowlan Park.

Change is a big theme as Brian Cody looks to shake things up, with TJ Reid set to sit out this game entirely.

In goal, St Lachtain's man Darren Brennan starts ahead of stalwart Eoin Murphy who has been named on the bench.

Tommy Walsh and David Blanchfield come into the backs ahead of Ciaran Wallace and Darragh Corcoran. Cillian Buckley is joined in midfield by Richie Reid.
