Damien Comer returns to Galway matchday panel, Mayo and Derry unchanged

Meanwhile, there’s a change of Harte for Tyrone’s All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final.

LAST UPDATE | 21 Jun

DAMIEN COMER HAS been named in the Galway matchday panel for their All-Ireland football preliminary quarter-final against Monaghan tomorrow.

The experienced forward had been absent since suffering an injury in the Tribe’s group stage opener against Derry last month.

Comer missed last weekend’s draw with Armagh, but returns to the bench in a significant boost.

Pádraig Joyce has named an unchanged starting team, with captain Seán Kelly and Rob Finnerty keeping their places after their respective returns last week.

Throw in at Pearse Stadium tomorrow is 4pm, while Monaghan are yet to show their hand.

Tyrone captain Peter Harte, meanwhile, makes his first championship start all year against Roscommon. 

The Red Hand have rejigged after Conn Kilpatrick’s suspension, with Niall Devlin also dropping out of the starting team and Kieran McGeary coming in.

Roscommon have also named their team for tomorrow’s clash in Omagh [5pm].

Mayo and Derry are both unchanged for their standout showdown at MacHale Park tomorrow evening [6.30pm], with Kevin McStay and Mickey Harte keeping the faith in their 15 players that took to the field last weekend.

The Green and Red drew with Dublin, while Derry saved their season with a late win over Westmeath.

Cork, similarly, named an unchanged starting team last night, but their opponents Louth are yet to publicly reveal their team. Their game is in Inniskeen on Sunday afternoon [3pm].
