MARK DONNELLAN’S RETURN is Kildare’s only change as they bid to defend their O’Byrne Cup title.

The Lilywhites take on Meath this Sunday in Newbridge (2pm).

His goalkeeper aside, Jason Ryan has named the same starting 15 that beat UCD in the semi-finals.

Four-goal hero Podge Fogarty joins Paddy Brophy and Darroch Mulhall in the same full-forward line that contributed 4-8 of Kildare’s 5-17 total last week.

Meanwhile Meath have named a high-powered attack of their own with Eamon Wallace, Stephen Bray and Mickey Newman teaming up for the first time since the win over DIT earlier this month.
