The Tribesmen have made 4 changes from their huge 1-12 to 0-12 win over Mayo in Castlebar 3 weeks ago. David Wynne and Seán Kelly come into the defence in place of Eoghan Kerin and Gary O’Donnell, Eamonn Brannigan comes in for Ciarán Duggan in the forwards with Paul Conroy shifting to midfield and Ian Burke replacing Seán Armstrong at top of the right. The team will again be captained by full forward Damien Comer.
