Tipperary manager Michael 'Babs' Keating has made a whopping seven changes to his side for Sunday's NHL quarter-final against Offaly at Semple Stadium. Brendan Cummins, Michael Ryan, Declan Fanning, Benny Dunne, Paul Kelly, Colin Morrissey and Eoin Kelly return to the starting line-up after missing the big win over Laois last time out. Cummins takes over in goal from Damien Young, Ryan replaces Eamonn Buckley at corner back, Fanning comes in for Conor O'Mahoney at centre back, with Dunne preferred to Hugh Moloney at left half back. Paul Kelly resumes at midfield with James Woodlock dropping to the bench, while Morrissey and Eoin Kelly replace Eoin Brislane and Danny Egan in a revamped attacking unit. Offaly, who will name their team on Thursday, are awaiting fitness reports on Brian Carroll and Alan Egan. Tipperary (SH v Offaly): B Cummins; P Curran, P Maher, M Ryan; E Corcoran, D Fanning, B Dunne; P Kelly, S McGrath; C Morrissey, J Carroll, K Dunne; E Kelly, M Webster, G O'Grady. Tweet
