Roscommon senior football captain, Brian Stack, has been named in the team to face Galway in Sunday's Connacht SFC semi-final at Pearse Stadium.

The St. Brigid's defender hasn't featured for the Rossies since going off injured during the league game against Monaghan in mid-February.

Overall, there are four changes from the team that saw off London last time out with Ronan Daly, Niall Higgins, Stack and Shane Cunnane coming into the team in place of Pearse Frost, John McManus, Dylan Ruane and Keith Doyle.

Daire Cregg, who came off injured against Westmeath, is a notable inclusion among the substitutes.

Meanwhile, John Maher has been named in the Galway team, despite picking up an ankle injury against New York.

Damien Comer is named among the substitutes, but Shane Walsh is set to miss out after he wasn't named among the match-day 26 or additional panel members by manager Pádraic Joyce.
