Pádraic Joyce has named his team to face Roscommon in Sunday’s Connacht SFC final at King and Moffatt Dr. Hyde Park.

Shane Walsh comes into the team at full-forward, as do regulars Jack Glynn and Seán Kelly in defence.

Matthew Tierney and Damien Comer are among the substitutes.

Galway defeated Leitrim by 1-20 to 2-12 in their Connacht semi-final, but the return of Glynn, Kelly and Walsh to the starting line-up makes it one of the strongest starting 15s Pádraic Joyce has been able to field this season.
