Meath manager Wayne Freeman has announced an unchanged team from that which defeated Tyrone last time out for this evening’s TG4 All Ireland LSFC quarter final against old foes Kerry in Tralee. The match has a 5.15 throw in time and will be broadcast live by the competition sponsors.
That means that Karla Kealy and Amy Gaffney once again take the corner back slots with Aine Sheridan policing the edge of the square in the absence of Mary Kate Lynch. Further out, Rathkenny’s Olivia Gore will anchor the defence while Sinead Murphy of Trim continues in midfield along skipper Niamh Gallogly.
Freeman will also be hoping for big impacts from both Ciara Smyth and Orla Sheridan if and when both are called into action having opted to keep the potent duo in reserve initially.
