Donncha O'Connor and Daniel Goulding have been called up to the Cork starting fifteen for next Sunday's Allianz NFL Division 1 semi-final versus Dublin.

O'Connor (centre forward) and Goulding (right corner forward) come into the attack for the injured Colm O'Driscoll (calf) and Barry O'Driscoll (broken thumb).

The Rebels will also be without Aidan Walsh, Eoin Cadogan, Donal Óg Hodnett (all hamstring) and John O'Rourke (groin) for the Croke Park clash.

Manager Brian Cuthbert will not announce his substitutions until Thursday due to injuries.

There is some good news for cruciate victim Ruairi Deane who was told by his surgeon on Monday that his knee injury does not now require surgery.
