Roscommon senior football manager, Davy Burke, has freshened up his deck of cards for Saturday evening’s crucial Division Two League game against Cork at SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh (throw-in at 7 p.m.).

There are four changes from the starting 15 against Meath, with David Murray, Robbie Dolan, Conor Hand and Ciarán Lennon coming into the team at the expense of Ruaidhrí Fallon, Dylan Ruane, Ronan Daly and Donie Smith.

Fallon, Ruane and Daly are among the substitutes, but Smith misses out on the match-day 26 altogether.

After referencing him in the aftermath of the seven-point loss against Meath, Burke has recalled Cathal Heneghan from Michael Glaveys to the substitutes bench.

Following last Sunday's reversal against Meath, the Rossies need a win to keep their Division Two destiny in their own hands.
