Limerick's Lucy set for season start

Limerick dual player Stephen Lucey is set for his first league start of the season in Sunday's crucial National Football League clash against Armagh at Crossmaglen.

The Croom man, who was introduced as a substitute during last weekend's win over fellow strugglers Sligo, returns to midfield and partners John Quane at the expense of James Donovan.

Sharpshooter Muiris Gavin, who limped out during last week's match, has been passed fit to play. Tommy Stack returns at right corner-back for Mark O'Riordan, and Stephen Kelly is named in attack for Sean Buckley.

LIMERICK (SF v Armagh): S Kiely; T Stack, D Sheehy, J McCarthy; P Browne, S Lavin, C Mullane; J Quane, S Lucey; M Crowley, M Gavin, S Kelly; C Fitzgerald, J Galvin, M Reidy.
