Paul Shiels, who has been shooting the lights this year, is a notable absentee from the Antrim team to take on Laois tomorrow.

The Dunloy marksman drops to the bench along with fellow attackers Darren Hamill and PJ O'Connell for the final Leinster SHC round-robin game in Portlaoise, with Barry McFall, erstwhile full back Matthew Donnelly and Christopher McGuinness coming in to replace them.

The winners of tomorrow's tie will face Wexford in a provincial quarter-final, while Galway await the losers.

Antrim (SH v Laois): Chris O'Connell; Odhran McFadden, Neal McAuley, Ciaran Johnson; Aaron Graffin, Conor McKinley, Simon McCrory; Eoghan Campbell, Barry McFall; Conor McCann, Conor Carson, Neil McManus; Ciaran Clarke, Matthew Donnelly, Christopher McGuinness.
