The move is not unexpected, as McCarthy, son of former dual star Teddy, impressed in a brief cameo in the drawn game, making an impact with his ball-winning skills in the half-forward line, a problem area for much of the game for the Rebels.

McCarthy was withdrawn minutes after his introduction with a minor leg injury but he has since recovered and manager Jimmy Barry-Murphy has handed him the number 11 jersey for Saturday night.
