Injuries have forced Eoin Quigley and Ciaran Roe out of this week’s big brace of 2025 European Championship pre-qualifiers.

Quigley picked up an ankle knock with Garvey's Tralee at the weekend and Killester's Roe injured his hamstring at Ireland training on Tuesday. They have been replaced by Keelan Cairns (Ballincollig) and Conor Quinn (Belfast Star).
