First season start for Dublin's Homan

Dublin boss Paul McCaffrey has handed Darren Homan his first start of the current league campaign in the team to face Donegal on Sunday at Parnell Park.

Homan impressed on his second-half introduction last Saturday against Westmeath and retains his place to partner Ciaran Whelan at midfield.

Shane Ryan leads the attack in place of the injured Liam Og O hEineachain.

U21 players Bryan Cullen and Mark Vaughan are both included, but have to come through today's Leinster U21FC clash with Louth unscathed.

Dublin (SF v Donegal): S Cluxton; P Griffin, P Christie, S O'Shaughnessy; P Casey, B Cullen, P Andrews; C Whelan, D Homan; C Moran, S Ryan, D Lally; M Vaughan, C Keaney, T Quinn.
