Wexford, Offaly line out with few changes

Wexford and Offaly face off in the last of the Round 2 All-Ireland football qualifiers at Wexford Park today.

Model County manager Pat Roe had made two changes to the side that lost to Westmeath in the Leinster semi-final for today's game.

Star corner-back Colm Morris returns from suspension and replaces John Hudson. The Castletown man missed the Westmeath defeat when he incurred a four-week ban after his sending-off in the quarter-final win over Kildare.

Darren Browne takes the place of Darren Foran at full-forward. Pat Forde, Jason Lawlor and Leigh O'Brien all retain their places.

Offaly have made one change from the side that accounted for Kildare in their last qualifier.

John Reynolds comes in at top of the left for Tomás Deehan, who was ruled out through injury.

Team captain Ciaran McManus stays at left half-forward and Mark Daly retains his place at midfield.

Offaly will be looking to avenge the Leinster final defeat of their hurling counterparts, while Wexford will be looking to star forward Mattie Forde to take them through to a third round meeting with Derry.
