Laois receive boost in relegation decider

Laois' battle against relegation this weekend has been boosted by the return of defender Darren Rooney to first team action.

The wing-back missed a series of matches because of a cartilage operation but comes back in as Laois bid to beat Wexford to stay up.

Mark Dunne replaces Michael Lawloe at wing-forward for the O'Moore Park tie.

Laois (SF v Wexford): M Nolan; A Fennelly, C Byrne, J Higgins; D Rooney, T Kelly, P McDonald; N Garvan, K Fitzpatrick; R Munnelly, I Fitzgerald, M Dunne; B McDonald, C Parkinson, C Conroy.
