Armagh could be without Andrew Murnin for Saturday's All-Ireland quarter-final derby against Tyrone.

Murnin chipped in with a match-winning 1-1 during last weekend's sensational Round Four Qualifier victory over Kildare at Croke Park but was unable to finish the match as he pulled up in the second half with a hamstring problem.

Even though his replacement Ethan Rafferty also contributed to the Orchard County's win, manager Kieran McGeeney would hate to return to HQ without the St Paul's clubman, who has played a leading role in Armagh's four-game winning streak through the back door.

Should Murnin be ruled out, potential replacements include Rafferty, Oisin O'Neill, Anto Duffy, Joe McElroy and Ciaron O'Hanlon.
