KILKENNY BOSS BRIAN Cody has made one change for Sunday’s Leinster SHC final at Croke Park.

In an enforced switch, Noel Hickey has been drafted in at full-back in place of JJ Delaeny, who misses out with a finger injury he picked up in the win over Dublin in Portlaoise.

Otherwise, it’s the same side what overcame Anthony Daly’s team in the semi-finals, meaning Eoin Larkin, Colin Fennelly and Paul Murphy are all passed fit.

For Galway, Anthony Cunnigham has brought David Collins in at corner-back while Joe Cooney misses out in a reshuffle.

Galway: J Skehill; D Collins, K Hynes, F Moore; N Donoghue, T Og Regan, J Coen; I Tannian, A Smith; D Burke, N Burke, C Donnellan; C Cooney, J Canning, D Hayes.
Kilkenny: D Herity; P Murphy, N Hickey, J Tyrrell; T Walsh, B Hogan, R Doyle; C Buckley, P Hogan; H Shefflin, TJ Reid, E Larkin; C Fennelly, R Power, R Hogan.
