CILLIAN BRENNAN and Darragh Bohannon will make their first start of the year for the Clare senior footballers.

Captain Brennan and Shannon Gaelsโ€™ Bohannon missed out on the entire Allianz National Football League through injury but return to Mark Fitzgeraldโ€™s side for the first time of 2024 to line out in the Munster SFC semi-final against Waterford on Saturday evening in Dungarvan.

Micheรกl Garry misses out on making his championship debut with a groin injury keeping him out of the matchday panel for this weekend.

Ikem Ugwueru, Cormac Murray and Garry bow out of the Clare team from the fifteen which started in the final round of the Allianz NFL against Down.

Both Brennan and Bohannon enter the fray along with ร‰ire ร“gโ€™s Mark McInerney at their expense.

There are positional changes on the side with Ronan Lanigan moving to corner back with Brennan at full-back, Cillian Rouine moving to centre back and Alan Sweeney at wing back. Gavin Murray moves from midfield to wing forward to allow for Bohannonโ€™s inclusion.
