The Kilkenny team line up during the parade for the Leinster Final with Galway.
There is a welcome return to the starting team for Eoin Cody as Derek Lyng makes two changes for Sunday's All-Ireland Semi-Final with Tipperary in Croke Par.
The Shamrocks Ballyhale man is back from a lengthy injury layoff and takes the place of Stephen Donnelly while the other change sees Shane Murphy back at full fitness and he comes in at corner back instead of Tommy Walsh.
The Cats are looking to reach a third All-Ireland decider in the last four years and there will be extra motivation for the Noresiders after they fell to Clare at this exact stage in 2024.
