Tyrone boss Mickey Harte has revealed his starting 15 for tomorrow’s Division 1 third round meeting with Kerry in Omagh.

After weeks of speculation over Cathal McShane’s future with the Red Hands recently came to an end, the 24-year-old is set to be held in reserve when the Munster champions come to visit Healy Park.

There are four changes in personnel from the side which lost out to Monaghan last weekend and half of those see Niall Kelly and Tiernan McCann occupying the right flank of defence.

Elsewhere, Conn Kilpatrick is named to start at centre-field while Daniel Kerr comes into the full-forward line where Frank Burns and Conor Meyler are also stationed.

Hugh Pat McGeary, Mark Bradley (suspended), Ronan O’Neill and Kyle Coney are the players to make way.

Throw-in is at 2.00pm.

Tyrone (FL1 v Kerry): Niall Morgan; Niall Kelly, Ronan McNamee, Liam Lafferty; Tiernan McCann, Rory Brennan, Peter Harte; Colm Cavanagh, Conn Kilpatrick; Kieran McGeary, Niall Sludden, Darren McCurry; Daniel Kerr, Frank Burns, Conor Meyler
