Pat Havern has been named to start for Down ahead of Saturday’s Tailteann Cup semi-final showdown with Fermanagh at Croke Park, having come off the bench in last week’s win over Laois.
The Saval clubman pointed after being introduced in the 53rd minute and in his absence, Eamon Brown assumed the role of go-to scorer and he finished with 0-9.
John McGeough didn’t feature at all in the quarter-final, bit he has been included alongside Havern and Brown in the full forward line.
Midfield will again see Ryan McEvoy partner Odhran Murdock while Caolan Mooney and Adam Crimmins have been held in reserve.
The winner of Saturday’s all-Ulster meeting will advance to the Tailteann Cup final where they await the winner of the second semi-final between Offaly and Wicklow.
