Malachy O’Rourke has announced the matchday panel for tomorrow’s crucial All-Ireland Senior Football Championship group stage encounter against Mayo at O’Neill’s Healy Park, Omagh.
Niall Morgan (Éadan na dTorc) takes his familiar position between the posts, with Cormac Quinn (Aireagal Chiaráin), Peter Teague (An Droim Mór), and Niall Devlin (Oileán a’Ghuail) forming a solid full-back line, combining tenacity and defensive resilience.
Michael McKernan (Oileán a’Ghuail) and Kieran McGeary (Cabhán a’Chaortainn) occupy the wing-back positions, providing pace and attacking support, while the ever-dependable Rory Brennan (Trí Leac) marshals the defence from centre-back.
In midfield, the formidable pairing of Brian Kennedy (Doire Locháin) and Conn Kilpatrick (Éadan na dTorc) will look to provide a solid platform, controlling the aerial exchanges and linking play between defence and attack.
The half-forward line sees Seanie O’Donnell (Trí Leac) continue his impressive run of form, with Mattie Donnelly (Trí Leac) at centre-forward and Ciarán Daly (Trí Leac) adding further creativity.
Up front, Tyrone boast an exciting full-forward line: Darren McCurry (Éadan na dTorc) will look to add his trademark sharpness in front of goal, with Mark Bradley (Coill an Chlochair) and Darragh Canavan (Aireagal Chiaráin) completing a dynamic attacking trio.
The matchday squad is completed by a strong bench, which includes experienced campaigners such as Padraig Hampsey (Oileán a’Ghuail), Frank Burns (Cabhán a’Chaortainn), and Peter Harte (Aireagal Chiaráin), alongside promising young talents ready to make an impact.
