Injuries limit Nolan’s options
Padraig Nolan's Kildare side will try to get their 2005 championship bid back on track against Sligo on Saturday - with four changes, three of which have been enforced due to injuries.
Nolan has brought in Padraig Mullarkey at full-back, David Lyons and Damien Hendy in the half-back line and James Kavanagh - making his first championship start - on the left wing of the attack.
Out of the side are the suspended James Lonergan, Mick Wright, Glenn Ryan (broken jaw) and Derek McCormack (shoulder).
With full-forward Stuart McKenzie-Smith out of contention with an elbow injury, Ronan Sweeney will lead the Kildare attack.
KILDARE (SFC v Sligo): Enda Murphy; Anthony Rainbow, Padraig Mullarkey, Andrew McLoughlin; David Lyons, Damien Hendy, Karl Ennis; Killian Brennan, Mick Foley; Ross Glavin, Dermot Earley, James Kavanagh; Tadgh Fennin, Ronan Sweeney, John Doyle.
