Mayo GAA senior football manager Kevin McStay has made five changes to his team for Round 3 of the Allianz National Football League against Kerry this weekend in Tralee. Ballintubber’s Michael Plunkett comes in for his first start of the campaign, replacing Rory Brickenden at centre back with David McBrien moving to the full-back position. Donnacha McHugh comes in for Sam Callinan at corner back. Both Brickenden and Callinan were part of the UCD team defeated in the Sigerson Cup Final last Wednesday evening.
Stephen Coen, whose goal proved decisive in a dramatic victory over Dublin last time out, replaces Mayo captain Paddy Durcan at wing-back.
Diarmuid O’Connor is back, getting his first start in this year’s league campaign at midfield. Upfront Tommy Conroy returns and will captain the team from the full-forward line. He replaces Charlestown Sarsfields Paul Towey on the edge of the square.
The game this Saturday, February 17 is at 7.30pm in Austin Stack Park in Tralee. Tipperary referee Derek O’Mahoney will be the man in the middle. The game is live on RTÉ Television and on Midwest Radio with Michael D McAndrew and Lee Keegan. Mayo GAA will have live updates across all social media platform on Saturday evening.
