Rathnew will be without star men Nicky Mernagh and Leighton Glynn for Sunday's Leinster Club clash with Rathvilly.

But manager Deccie Byrne remains confident that the Wicklow champions can prevail in Aughrim:

"Nicky is going to be a blow and Leighton is looking like he's going to be doubtful as well but we'll give him every chance," he notes in The Wicklow People.

"You can never say never with Leighton but it is looking very doubtful that he can even play a part. They're big losses, they're big players.

"But we still have the players to come in and play a part so we're hoping that we can get a little bit more out of them. Sometimes you get that extra 10% out of the lads around them and the lads coming in to do the job."
