Clare's Darren O'Neill handed first Championship in a decade

Clare's Darren O'Neill handed his first Championship start since 2011 

The Clare football team that will line out at Fitzgerald Stadium tomorrow evening is unchanged from the side that started the county's Division 2 League semi-final defeat to Mayo.

Clare manager Colm Collins has kept faith with the same 15 that began the 2-22 to 2-18 loss to Mayo a fortnight ago.

Midfielder Darren O'Neill, who has stepped into the void left by Gary Brennan, will make his first championship start for the Banner since the 2011 Munster semi-final.

CLARE (Munster SFC quarter-final v Kerry): S Ryan; C Russell, C Brennan, E Collins; C O'Dea, S Collins, D Walsh; C O'Connor, D O'Neill; D Bohannon, E Cleary, P Lillis; G Cooney, J McGann, D Tubridy.
