Brendan Donaghy from Clonmore is named at full-back in place of the injured Francie Bellew, while Kieran Toner from Granemore, makes his debut at midfield alongside captain Paul McCrane.
This game will also mark the return to intercounty football of Diarmuid Marsden, who is named at full forward. Marsden’s last championship outing with the Orchard County was in the 2004 All-Ireland quarter-final when Joe Kernan’s side crashed to a shock defeat against Fermanagh.
