Derry boss Damian McErlain has named his side for tomorrow afternoon’s Division 4 final clash against Leitrim at Croke Park.

The team shows a raft of changes from the experimental one McErlain lined-out in last weekend’s dead-rubber affair against Wexford in Bellaghy, with Thomas Mallon returning between the posts in place of Ben McKinless and Karl and Chrissy McKaigue restored to the Oak Leafers’ defence.

Padraig Cassidy and Conor McAtamney start at centre-field while Ryan Bell – scorer of 0-9 the last day – leads the Ulster men’s attack from full-forward.

Throw-in is at 3pm.

Derry (FL4 final v Leitrim): Thomas Mallon; Karl McKaigue, Brendan Rogers, Paul McNeill; Michael McEvoy, Chrissy McKaigue, Niall Keenan; Padraig Cassidy, Conor McAtamney; Emmett Bradley, Enda Lynn, Conor Doherty; Shane McGuigan, Ryan Bell, Christopher Bradley.

Subs: Ben McKinless, Eoghan Concannon, Patrick Coney, Rory Dougan, Benny Heron, Conor Mulholland, Eamon McGill, Padraig McGrogan, Sean F Quinn, Jason Rocks, Niall Toner.
