Galway name side for expected win

Galway will boast six newcomers for tomorrow night's qualifier clash with Laois in Portlaoise (throw-in 7.00pm).

The Tribesmen, who finished fourth in the second phase of the recent NHL Division 1 campaign, have put faith in 2004 minor Ger Mahon at right-half back, Derek Hardiman at centre half back, Colin Coen will fill the left-corner back berth while Kevin Hayes lines out at full-forward.
