Kilkenny will name their team tonight while Tipp will name their side tomorrow for Sundays Allianz league final in Thurles. The last time Tipp beat Kilkenny in the league final was in 1968 but it’s a big game for both as they prepare for their Championship openers against Limerick and Offaly respectively.

I've been speaking to 3 time All Star and 2 time All Ireland winner Charlie Carter and asked him about Tipps defensive problems earlier in the season.
