Maguire and O’Neill drop to the Rebels bench as Kelleher makes his seasonal debut

CORK BOSS PEADAR Healy has made a number of changes to the Rebels side who fell to Kildare by six points in their last outing two weeks ago.

Cork are winless from their opening two games of the Allianz Footall League Division 2, with a win against Fermanagh absolutely critical if they are to push for a return to the top flight.

Nemo Rangers star Stephen Cronin replaces Conor Dorman at wing-back, while Aidan Walsh switches to midfield and Ian Maguire drops to the bench.

A new-look half-forward line features Brian O’Driscoll, Luke Connolly and John O’Rourke, with Sean Powter and Mark Collins losing out.

Colm O’Neill, scoreless from play against Kildare, reverts to the substitutes, as Niall Coakley and Peter Kelleher come in to partner captain Paul Kerrigan as their inside trio.
