Wexford pair out of Croker clash

Wexford duo Aindreas Doyle and Andrew Shore will miss Sunday’s Leinster SFC quarter-final with Longford at Croke Park.

Doyle, who missed the Division 3 league final defeat to Longford with a hamstring injury, aggravated the problem when playing for Parnell’s in the Dublin SFC. Shore damaged his knee and ankle during a Sunday training session and is facing a six-week lay-off.

Shore’s absence will likely result in Rory Quinlivan resuming his midfield partnership with Daithi Waters, while Robert Tierney should retain his corner-back berth in Doyle’s absence.
