MAYO HAVE MADE one change for Sunday’s Electric Ireland All-Ireland minor football final against Tyrone in Croke Park.
Cian Hanley suffered a fractured collarbone in the semi-final win over Monaghan and is ruled out with Padraig Prendergast coming in to replace him at left half-forward.
The unlucky Hanley, a younger brother of Brisbane Lions AFL star Pearce, sustained the injury before the interval in that game and manager Enda Gilvarry was thus forced into a change.
Prendergast was sprung from the bench when Hanley got injured and the Louisburgh club man hit two points during Mayo’s comfortable 3-19 to 1-12 victory.
