O'Dwyer stays with unchanged Wicklow side...

Wicklow boss Mick O'Dwyer has named an unchanged team for the fourth weekend in-a-row ahead of Saturday's All-Ireland round four qualifier against Kildare.

The Garden County have remained injury free for the last month. Interestingly, Micko hasn't used any substitutes in the backdoor wins over Fermanagh, Cavan and Down, as Wicklow collected three championship victories on the trot for the first time.

In fact, Wicklow have already been further in the Championship this year than at any stage in their history.

Wicklow Team:
M Travers; C Hyland, D O hAnnaidh, S Kelly; P McWalter, B McGrath, D Hayden; J Stafford, T Walsh; JP Dalton, T Hannon, L Glynn; D Odlum, S Furlong, P Earls.


On another note, Kildare still have to name their starting XV for this match. Manager Kieran McGeeney is awaiting news on the fitness of Mikey Conway, James Kavanagh and Eamonn Callaghan. The trio are still suffering the effects of a variety of injuries they picked up in the Leinster final defeat to Dublin.

Last year's captain Killian Brennan has been ruled out of the game entirely with a torn hamstring.
