Cork manager Brian Cuthbert has chosen to make eight changes from the team that lined out against Mayo at Elvery's MacHale Park two weeks ago for their next Allianz NFL Division 1 outing at home to Tyrone on Sunday.

Goalkeeper David Hanrahan is handed his senior debut. The Douglas club man was a member of last year's U21 panel and is the replacement for Ken O'Halloran.

Noel Galvin and James Loughrey come into a reshuffled defence in place of Kevin Crowley and Alan Cronin, while Fintan Goold is named at midfield ahead of Andrew O'Sullivan.

John O'Rourke, Mark Collins, Daniel Goulding and John Hayes all start in attack. The others to make way are Conor Dorman, Colm O'Driscoll, Colm O'Neill and Donncha O'Connor.

There is also a couple of key positional switches, Eoin Cadogan moves to corner back with Tom Clancy (Clonakilty) now wearing the number 3 jersey. Captain Michael Shields moves from corner back out to centre back and Tomas Clancy (Fermoy) drops from half forward to half back.

Cork (NFL v Tyrone) - David Hanrahan; Eoin Cadogan, Tom Clancy, Noel Galvin; Tomas Clancy, Michael Shields, James Loughrey; Aidan Walsh, Fintan Goold; John O'Rourke, Paul Kerrigan, Mark Collins; Daniel Goulding, Brian Hurley, John Hayes.
