Mark Griffin and Tommy Walsh come in at midfield and full-forward, respectively, as Kerry boss Peter Keane continues with his rotation policy ahead of the Allianz FL Division 1 clash with Galway.

Keane has made four changes from the side that defeated All-Ireland champions Dublin for Sunday's fourth round tie against the Tribesmen in Tuam (throw-in 2pm).

Shane Enright and Gavin Crowley have also been handed starting berths in defence following injuries, with Brian O Beaglaioch (suspended), Tadhg Morley, Adrian Spillane and Paul Geaney the players to drop out.

Keane confirmed earlier this week that David Clifford and James O’Donoghue will return to action before the end of the league, however, this game comes too soon for both of them.

Kerry (Allianz FL v Galway): Shane Ryan; Peter Crowley, Jack Sherwood, Shane Enright; Gavin Crowley, Paul Murphy, Tom O'Sullivan; Jack Barry, Mark Griffin; Diarmuid O'Connor, Sean O'Shea, Gavin O'Brien; Dara Moynihan, Tommy Walsh, Stephen O'Brien.

Subs: Brian Kelly, Jonathan Lyne, Michael Geaney, Tadhg Morley, Kevin McCarthy, Graham O'Sullivan, Conor Geaney, Tomas O Se, Jason Foley, Killian Spillane, Denis Daly.
