DUBLIN BOSS JIM Gavin has made two personnel changes to his side as they prepare for a trip to Dr Hyde Park to face Roscommon (throw-in 2pm, live on TG4) tomorrow.

Star forward Dean Rock starts from the get-go this week, after coming off the bench in their 1-12 to 0-7 win over Mayo at Croke Park last Saturday.

Likewise, Paddy Andrews earns a start at corner forward against the Rossies while Michael Fitzsimons and Paul Mannion are the two players to be held in reserve with several other positional switches across the board.

After a pair of defeats to Monaghan and Kerry and wins over Galway and Mayo, the Sky Blues will be hoping for success over another Connacht side in their fifth round clash tomorrow.

Elsewhere at the same time, the county’s hurlers are in action against Laois in Parnell Park. Mattie Kenny’s charges sealed a memorable win over Waterford at the Donnycarney venue last weekend, and they’ll be hoping to build on that this time around.

Cuala’s All-Ireland winning boss has made four personnel changes in total, with last week’s hero Alan Nolan being replaced by Seán Brennan between the sticks.

David Treacy and Paul Ryan both start in the forward line with and Jake Malone in midfield, as Darragh O’Connell, Caolan Conway and Oisin O’Rorke drop to the bench.
