Tipperary manager David Power has made a couple of changes for Sunday's Munster SFC final encounter with Cork at Pairc Ui Chaoimh (throw-in 1.30pm).

Steven O'Brien and Brian Fox both return to the starting line-up following the dramatic extra-time victory over Limerick two weeks ago, with Sydney Swans star Colin O’Riordan featuring on the bench after being given permission by the AFL club to play in the provincial decider. 

The players to make way are Clonmel Commercials clubmen Jason Lonergan and Jack Kennedy, who is ruled out with injury. 

Tipperary (Munster SFC final v Cork): Evan Comerford; Alan Campbell, Jimmy Feehan, Colm O'Shaughnessy; Bill Maher, Kevin Fahey, Robbie Kiely; Steven O'Brien, Liam Casey; Conal Kennedy, Michael Quinlivan, Emmet Moloney; Brian Fox, Conor Sweeney, Colman Kennedy.

Subs: Michael O’Reilly, Tadhg Fitzgerald, Daire Brennan, Colin O’Riordan, Padraic Looram, Paudie Feehan, Sean O’Connor, Philip Austin, Jason Lonergan, Shane Foley, Liam Boland.

It's a bumper weekend of inter-county championship matches with football deciders in Leinster, Munster and Ulster, two All-Ireland hurling quarter-finals, two Joe McDonagh Cup ties and the Christy Ring and Nicky Rackard Cup finals.
