GAA Team check

Galway SH

Noel Lane named his side at training last night and it is due to be released today.

It was hoped long-serving forward Joe Rabbitte would be fit enough to claim his place. The Athenry man had been labouring with a broken finger. Other borderline cases were Cathal Moore and Alan Kerins but both are expected to start.

Kilkenny SH

The All-Ireland champions hope to announce a team following training in Nowlan Park this evening. For the first time all summer, Brian Cody has a totally healthy panel available to him.

Wexford SH

The Leinster runners-up came through Sunday's thriller with Tipperary unscathed and may announce a side this evening. Ger Coleman did come off with a hand injury in that drawn match but is expected to be fine ahead of this Saturday's replay.

Tipperary SH

Nicky English's men train this evening and will most likely name a team after that session. There are reportedly no serious injuries.
