No St Galls players in the squad. Must be the first time in a while.
More or less the same Antrim team that lost by 7 to Down in Ulster, with keeper Chris Kerr replaced by Andrew Hasson and Patrick McBride moves to no 10 and is replaced by Colm Duffin at no 15. Mark Sweeney moves from the half forwards to take over from the suspended Ricky Johnston at centre back. Declan Lynch seems to be listed as sub goalkeeper. Both teams will fancy a win in this one. Home advantage might give Offaly the edge.
Offaly by two.
So where is Chris Kerr ?

As I understand it Chris Kerr and Conor Burke opted out of the panel after the Down game. St Gall's represented by manager Lenny Harbinson!

At least there is no biased ;)
Most of the club is in Galway this weekend for the Féile this weekend! so Probably there
Would the likes of Kevin Small or Liam Quinn not be worth a run in the senior panel at this stage? Give them a bit of experience. Super players for their schools in recent years.
Unfortunately lads i think were up against it being away from home & last time we played them they turned us over easy, but at the same time one we could win please please perform

Or Cunningham.
If we can get to round 2, then I'd say we'll have a few changes.

Yeah.
It'll be interesting to see who we get, and how we get on.
