Dublin name Team to face Donegal
- Feb 09,2013
Dublin Interim boss, Paul Gilheaney has announced his team to take on Donegal in the second round of the Tesco Home Grown NFL. Gilheaney has made 7 changes to his starting 15 from what lined out against Meath Last Sunday. Two of these changes have been enforced on the interim boss with serious injuries to Orla Egan (shoulder) and Niamh McEvoy (knee) having been picked up in last Sunday's two point win over Meath.
Emma Merrigan takes over number the one spot ahead of Cliodhna O'Connor, Dublin's entire half back line has been altered from the Meath clash with Natalia Hyland, Sinead Finnegan and Niamh Keane all named at the heart of the Dub's defence ahead of Laura McGahan, Niamh McEvoy and Fiona Hudson.
Dublin's attack welcomes the return of three times All Star, Sinead Aherne who has been named at left corner forward. Fingallians Denise McKenna will line out along side Aherne at full forward while Ciara Ruddy who was introduced against Meath last weekend starts having been handed the number 10 jersey.
Dublin's two goal heroines from last weeks clash with Meath, Lauren Ebbs and Amy Ring are named amongst the Dublin substitutes. Oonagh White and Maria Kenny two of last years Minor All Ireland winning team are also included on the Dublin bench.
The throw time for Dublin v Donegal is 2pm with the game down to be played in Chanel College the new home of Parnell's GAA club.
There will be live updates on the game on Twitter @dublinladiesg
