Lenihan set to miss Roscommon trip

Last year's top scorer Donal Lenihan looks set to miss Meath's trip to Dr Hyde Park on Sunday as injury rules the Dunboyne man out of the NFL Div 2 opener against Roscommon who were relegated from the top flight at the end of the last campaign.
Lenihan's absence is a massive blow for manager Andy McEntee who is hoping for a big pronmotion push this year after going so close to in 2017.
Lenihan is replaced at corner-forward by Wolfe Tones' Thomas O'Reilly in one of six changes from the Meath side that lost to Donegal in the All-Ireland SFC qualifier in Navan last July.
The other changes see Donaghmore/Ashbourne's Andy Colgan come in for Paddy O'Rourke, while Padraic Harnan, Brian Conlon, Ruairi O Coileain and Sean Tobin are replaced by Seamus Lavin, Adam Flanagan, Ben Brennan and Joey Wallace.
O Coileain and Harnan are no longer part of the Meath panel, while Tobin and Conlon have to be content with a place on the bench.
