Notes

  1. Reid was appointed captain although he had not yet nailed down a starting place on the Kilkenny starting fifteen. If he did not line out his brother, Eoin Reid was to act as captain. If neither Reid lined out Henry Shefflin would be the stand-by captain.
  2. Fennelly was appointed captain although he had not yet nailed down a place on the Kilkenny starting fifteen. Henry Shefflin was appointed vice-captain and deputised when Fennelly was not playing.
