Donegal show two changes for trip to Roscommon

Donegal manager Rory Gallagher has made two changes to his side for Sunday’s trip to Roscommon.

Neil McGee returns at full-back, while there is a first Allianz League start for St Eunan’s man Conor Gibbons.

Donegal head for Dr Hyde Park in search of – and, perhaps, in need of – a win following the weekend’s 2-17 to 1-17 loss to Kerry in their season-opener at O’Donnell Park.

McGee missed that clash having felt unwell after he woke up on the morning of the game.

The Gaoth Dobhair man returned to training this week and will reclaim his full-back sentry on Sunday.

Gibbons made his League debut as a substitute against Kerry and has been handed a start this weekend.

Frank McGlynn had been carrying a knock last week but with McGee absent, the Glenfin man started against Kerry. McGlynn steps out again for the visit to Roscommon this weekend, with Michael Langan also making way.

Donegal: Mark Anthony McGinley; Caolan Ward, Neil McGee, Paddy McGrath; Eoghan Ban Gallagher, Ryan McHugh, Paul Brennan; Jason McGee, Hugh McFadden; Ciaran Thompson, Martin O’Reilly, Conor Gibbons; Patrick McBrearty, Michael Murphy, Jamie Brennan.
