Following the disappointment of defeat to Roscommon, Galway will look to get their National Football League campaign back on track on Sunday (1st March) when they travel to take on Division 1 leaders Donegal.
The Tir Conaill men are 13 games unbeaten in Ballyshannon, but the Tribesmen have a good recent record against the Ulster champions. They drew on their last trip to Letterkenny in 2020, with goals from Johnny Heaney and Sean Kelly securing a 2-8 to 2-7 win in manager Padraic Joyce's first season in charge.
Galway have made three changes to the starting team with Liam Silke, Ciarán Mulhern and Oisin Mac Donnacha all named in the starting 15.
Galway's Johnny Heaney has taken a year out but hopes to return to the maroon and white in 2027. He caught up with Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly to chat about how things are going and to look ahead to the team's trip to Donegal.
The Galway team in full:
Eamonn McGrath in goal;
A full back line of Johnny McGrath, Cian Hernon and Jack Glynn;
Liam Silke, Dylan McHugh and Seán Kelly are the half backs;
Captain John Maher partners Matthew Tierney in midfield;
Shane McGrath, Ciarán Mulhern and Liam O Conghaile are on the 40;
And an inside line of Robert Finnerty, Cein D’Arcy and Oisin Mac Donnacha.
Throw-in at Fr. Tierney Park, Ballyshannon on Sunday is 1.15pm and we'll have LIVE coverage here on Galway Bay FM.
