Meath selection unveiled for Kerry test

Meath have opted to go with the same starting XV for Sunday’s GAA Football All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Group 4 Round 2 meeting with Kerry that lined out a week ago against Louth in Inniskeen.

That means Billy Hogan will continue in goals with Donal Keogan, Adam O’Neill and Ronan Ryan lining up in the full back line.  Darragh Campion will once more don the no. 6 jersey at centre back and he will be flanked by Harry O’Higgins and Sean Coffey at wing back.
