Clare have made two changes for Saturday’s All-Ireland SFC round two qualifier with Leitrim from the side that exited the Munster SFC at the hands of Kerry earlier this month.
Kevin Harnett is ruled out through injury, he sustained a broken cheek bone and concussion in the six point defeat to Kerry and his place at corner back has been taken by Dean Ryan.
Up front, Gavin Cooney starts at corner forward with Doonbeg’s David Tubridy moving to the edge of the square and Darragh Bohannon of Shannon Gaels dropping out of the team as a result.
