ROSCOMMON HAVE MADE two changes for Saturday’s Super 8s clash with Donegal as they seek to bounce back from the hiding they suffered at the hands of Tyrone in Croke Park last Saturday.
Sean McDermott comes into the team at corner-back while Brian Stack is named to start at full-forward.
Niall Daly and Donie Smith are the two players to make way as Roscommon seek to get their Group 2 campaign up and running.
It’s only the second championship tie between the counties after Donegal triumphed in the 2008 All-Ireland qualifier in Ballybofey by 3-11 to 1-9 with an 18-year-old Michael Murphy scoring 2-2 for the winners.
Throw-in at Dr Hyde Park is 5pm.
