Callaghan ruled out of final

KILDARE’S Eamonn Callaghan won’t start tomorrow’s Leinster SFC final against Dublin.

The versatile Naas man has been getting treatment on a groin injury and it was responding well enough for him to be named in the starting line-up on Thursday night. He suffered a slight reaction however and it has been decided not to risk him from the start. He will take his place on the substitute’s bench and could well see some action.

Callaghan’s place at full-forward goes to Ellistown’s Ken Donnelly.
