Injury worries for Galway
Galway boss Mattie Murphy has worries over defensive pair Darragh Burke and Conor McDonagh who were both forced off during the quarter-final win over Waterford. Full-back Burke was taken off suffering with a groin injury at half-time while left corner-back McDonagh departed with a hand injury in the closing stages.
The pair have struggled to shake off the injuries since then and regain fitness ahead of next Sunday’s repeat of last year’s All-Ireland minor decider. Gerard O’Donoghue and Pádraig Concannon were the players introduced in the semi-final and are in pole position for starting places should Burke and McDonagh fail to make it.
