No change for Royals ahead of Rebel test
Meath manager Andy McEntee has kept faith with the 15 players that started the NFL Div 2 win over Galway a fortnight ago for Sunday's fifth round clash with Cork in Pairc Uí Rinn, 2pm.
It is the first time in nine games that McEntee has named the same team for consecutive games and shows a significant degree of confidence in the side that scored that surprise 1-13 to 0-15 win over Galway in Pairc Tailteann.
Padraic Harnan and Donnacha Tobin made their returns in the win over Galway and retain their places while McEntee is also expected to have his nephew James and son Shane back from injury in time for the trip south.
The Meath team to face Cork on Sunday is - Paddy O’Rourke; Donal Keogan, Conor McGill, Donnacha Tobin; Willie Carry, Brian Power, Padraic Harnan; Bryan Menton, James Toher; Alan Forde, Cillian O’Sullivan, Ruairí Ó Coileáin; Bryan McMahon, Graham Reilly, Donal Lenihan.
