Antrim play Kerry in Sunday's All-Ireland Senior Football Championship qualifier round 4 at Tullamore @ 2:00 PM.
Kevin Niblock has been drafted into the Antrim team with Michael McCann moving to midfield. Niblock indirectly replaces Sean Burke in the only change from the side that lost last Sunday's Ulster SFC final to Tyrone. Niall McKeever is now at wing forward and Tomas McCann moves to the left corner where he takes over from Burke.
Antrim Team:
P Graham; C Brady, A McClean, K O'Boyle; T Scullion, J Crozier, J Loughrey; M McCann, A Gallagher; T O'Neill, K Brady, N McKeever; P Cunningham, K Niblock, T McCann.
Kerry manager Jack O'Connor will not name his team until just before the throw-in. They are set to be without the injured Tommy Walsh, but Tadhg Kennelly is expected to return from a hand injury.
It is rumored that Colm Cooper and Tomas O Se have been dropped from the Kerry team for a breach of discipline, but will be togged out and on the subs bench.

It is now reported that the Cooper and O'Se were among six players disciplined by Kingdom manager Jack O'Connor during a "clear the air" meeting with his squad on Tuesday night.
ReplyDeleteO'Connor is not commenting on the issue, although it is highly likely that the pair will be sanctioned heavily and miss this weekend's clash as a result.
