Team news: Waterford and Monaghan to revive memories of past classics in must-win tie

TG4 All Ireland Senior Championship – Round 2, Group 2 – Saturday July 20 

Monaghan v Waterford; Cremartin, 3pm (G Carmody, Roscommon)

The meeting of Monaghan and Waterford in Group 2 will revive memories of classic encounters between counties who met in All-Ireland Senior Finals in 1994, 1995, 1997 and 1998.

This is Monaghan’s first outing since losing the Ulster semi-final to Armagh on June 9 – and manager Niall Treanor has handed starts to Karla Lambe, Lisa Flynn and Louise Kerley, who come in for Casey Treanor, Rosemary Courtney and Muireann Atkinson.

In a group with Dublin, this is a must-win encounter for both sides, as Waterford suffered defeat against the Sky Blues last weekend.

Déise boss Ciaran Curran has named an unchanged team, but dual player Caoimhe McGrath is listed among the subs and could earn a start.
