As expected, Meath have shuffled the decks ahead of tonight’s O’Byrne Cup quarter final against Offaly in Gracefield (7.30).
Experienced performers Billy Hogan, James McEntee, Bryan Menton, Jack O’Connor and the inspirational Cillian O’Sullivan come into the side for the midweek tango with Declan Kelly’s midlanders.
The incomings also prompt a number of positional switches with Daithi McGowan relocating to centre field to partner the evergreen Menton with Oisin Martin leading the attack and both O’Connor and Skryne’s Darragh Campion manning the left flank. Both making their first starts in green and gold for some considerable time.
