One change on Westmeath team for Galway clash
There is one change to the Westmeath starting team for the eagerly awaited All-Ireland SFC Group 2 clash against Galway at TEG Cusack Park tomorrow (Saturday, throw-in 5pm).
Ronan Wallace returns to the Westmeath starting line-up, with Caulry's Senan Baker dropping to the bench as a result.
Wallace was introduced as a substitute in the narrow defeat to Armagh at the Athletic Grounds last Saturday, as he was returning to match fitness from a fracture in his hand.
Galway have also named their team and the Connacht champions have a strong line-up, which includes such renowned names as Seán Kelly, Paul Conroy, Matthew Tierney, Damien Comer and Shane Walsh.
With the inclusion of Cian Hernon and Robert Finnerty, Galway make two changes from their recent win over Tyrone, while Sean Mulkerrin returns to the squad after shattering his kneecap last year.
