Laois minor footballers name team to take on Louth in Leinster quarter final

Laois minor football manager Mark Bates has named his starting 15 for Saturday’s Leinster quarter final against Louth.

The O’Moore side have been forced into one change as Clonaslee’s Cathal Lee misses out through suspension.

He was sent off in the second half of the dramatic first round encounter against Wexford.

His place on the starting team goes to Ballyroan-Abbey’s Patrick Whelan and there are no further changes to the team.

Manager Bates has been able to call upon vice-captain Jack Byrne after his red card was overturned on Tuesday following an appeal.

Byrne was sent off in the first half of the game against Wexford but video evidence cleared him of any wrong-doing.

Laois will face Louth in Stabannon at 12pm on Saturday and you can follow all of the action with us via our live blog.

LAOIS: Conor Brown; Ryan Quinlan, Ciaran Culleton, Patrick Whelan; Darragh Slevin, Sean Brennan, Aaron Dorgan; Darren Mulhall, Aodhan Lowry; Davy Costello, Jack Byrne, Jesse McEvoy; Kieran O’Donnell, Cormac Murphy, Killian Byrne
