It will be a proud day for the Newmarket-on-Fergus club on Sunday when three of their players will make their Munster SHC debuts for Clare against Tipperary. As expected, James McInerney comes in for the injured Conor Cooney at full back, while Colin Ryan is named at left half forward and David Barrett at full forward. Gerry O'Grady has recovered from an ankle injury to take his place at left corner back, while the experienced Alan Markham fills the void left by Gerry Quinn in the half back line. Tony Griffin switches from the attack to form a new midfield partnership with Brian O'Connell. Clare (SH v Tipperary): P Brennan; P Vaughan, J McInerney, G O'Grady; P Donnellan, B Bugler, A Markham; B O'Connell, T Griffin; T Carmody, D McMahon, C Ryan; N Gilligan, D Barrett, J Clancy. Tweet
