Rushe returns to heart of defence for Galway clash

Dublin have made three changes to their starting team for Saturday night's NHL Division 1A encounter with Galway in Parnell Park (7.0).

Liam Rushe, who missed the defeat to Tipp last weekend owing to suspension, comes into the team at centre-back while Shane Durkin and Colm Cronin are also handed starting slots.

Cronin was introduced as a sub in Thurles last Saturday night while Durkin missed out last weekend as he was in action with Ballyboden St Enda's in their successful All-Ireland club SFC semi-final duel with Clonmel Commercials.
