Team Check: Donnellan at midfield for Galway

Galway SF

Michael Donnellan is back in the starting line-up as Galway continue the defence of their Connacht title against Roscommon at Tuam on Sunday.

Having missed the win over Leitrim following his brief absence from the panel, Donnellan was back training with Galway last night and has been included at midfield where he will partner Sean O Domhnaill.

Two other changes from the team that defeated Leitrim by 19 points earlier this month see Gary Fahey starting at full back in place of Kieran Fitzgerald and Richie Fahey coming in at right corner back.

Alan Kerins keeps his place in attack and Ja Fallon has been selected at centre forward. Ruled out through injury were Derek Savage and Matthew Clancy.

Galway (SF v Roscommon): P Lally; R Fahey, G Fahey, T Mannion; D Meehan, J Divilly, S De Paor; S O Domhnaill, M Donnellan; J Bergin, J Fallon, T Joyce; A Kerins, P Joyce, K Comer (capt).

Derry SF

Eamonn Coleman has given championship debuts to four players for Sunday's game against Antrim at Celtic Park. Corner back Gareth Doherty and midfielder Fergal Doherty - brothers who play with Bellaghy - come into the side along with full back Kevin McCloy and right half forward Paul Murphy.

Fergal Doherty is still only 19 and will partner the experienced Anthony Tohill. Niall McCusker was ruled out with a hamstring injury, and also missing from the side that fell to Armagh in the Ulster final last year are the experienced Kieran McKeever, Henry Downey, Dermot Heaney and Joe Cassidy.

Heaney is named on the bench this time, while the full forward line of Patrick Bradley, Enda Muldoon and Johnny McBride maintains its familiar formation.

Derry (SF v Antrim): O McCloskey; G Doherty, K McCloy, SM Lockhart; P McFlynn, F Crossan, G Coleman; A Tohill, F Doherty; P Murphy, D Dougan, R Rocks; P Bradley, E Muldoon, J McBride. Subs: M Conlon, P Carton, A Heaney, J Niblock, D Heaney, J Donaghy, P O'Kane, C Gilligan, G Diamond.

Carlow SF

There is one change in personnel in the team to face Kildare at Croke Park on Sunday. James Hickey, who plays with Mount Leinster Rangers, gets the call-up at left corner forward in a direct swap with Pat Nolan.

John McGrath was ruled out through injury and so Alan Bowe will once again start at midfield in partnership with Sean Kavanagh.

Carlow (SF v Kildare): P McGrath; J Hickey, B Farrell, V Fleming; S O'Brien, J Byrne, M Drea; A Bowe, S Kavanagh; J Kavanagh, W Quinlan, J Nevin; B Kelly, M Carpenter, J Hickey.

Roscommon SF

With goalkeeper Shane Curran ruled out through suspension and injuries to Don Connellan and Stephen Lohan, manager John Tobin won't finalise his team to play Galway until later today. There is also a concern over the availability of Conor Connelly, who is awaiting clearance from the Leinster Council after being sent off for his club St Jude's.

Meath SF

The team to play Westmeath will be decided tonight. Nigel Nestor remains the main injury worry and though Westmeath have never beaten Meath in the senior championship, uncertainties remain over key positions within the Meath team.
