GALWAY WILL BE without star forward Shane Walsh for Sunday’s Division Two National Football League final against Galway in Croke Park [throw-in 1.45pm, live on TG4].
Tribe boss Pádraic Joyce named his team last night, with Walsh absent from the matchday 26, having been an injury doubt.
The Kilkerrin-Clonberne sharpshooter has struggled with an ongoing back injury, and didn’t feature in last week’s 1-20 to 1-15 defeat to Anthony Cunningham’s Rossies in the group stages.
Joyce rings the changes from that starting 15, with seven switches in personnel in total.

Damien Comer starts at full-forward, having been an injury concern of late (hamstring), with Liam Silke, John Daly, Dylan McHugh, Paul Conroy, Robert Finnerty and Cillian McDaid also in from the get-go.
