Shane Murphy and Tadhg Og Murphy will make their championship debuts for Cork in Saturday's All-Ireland hurling qualifier against Offaly at Tullamore. They are included in a team that shows three changes from that which lost narrowly to Tipperary in the Munster SHC quarter-final. Erin's Own clubman Shane Murphy replaces Conor O'Sullivan at left corner back, with Tadhg Og Murphy coming in to partner Tom Kenny at midfield. Jerry O'Connor moves to right half forward with Pa Cronin taking over from Niall McCarthy at centre forward. Ben O'Connor's inclusion at top of the right sees Kieran Murphy of Sarsfields switching to left corner forward at the expense of Pat Horgan, who drops to the bench along with O'Sullivan and McCarthy. Cork (SHC v Offaly): D. Óg Cusack; S. O'Neill, E. Cadogan, S. Murphy; J. Gardiner, R. Curran, S. Óg O hAilpín; T. Kenny, T. Óg Murphy; J. O'Connor, P. Cronin, T. McCarthy; B. O'Connor, A. O hAilpín, K. Murphy (Sarsfields). Tweet
