Another Kerryman will line out for a different county in the football championship this weekend.

Listowel's Conor Cox was the star of Roscommon's Connacht SFC final triumph last Sunday and Pádraig De Brún will be hoping to make a similar impact when he starts at corner forward for his adopted Limerick in tomorrow's All-Ireland SFC Round 2 qualifier against Westmeath at TEG Cusack Park.

The Firies clubman is drafted into the starting XV along with James Naughton and Tony McCarthy after all three came off the bench in the heavy Munster SFC semi-final loss to Cork. They replace Paul Maher, who has gone to the US, Sean McSweeney and Adrian Enright.

Limerick (SF v Westmeath): Donal O'Sullivan; Brian Fanning, Sean O'Dea, Colm McSweeney; Gordon Brown, Iain Corbett, Cillian Fahy; Darragh Treacy, Tommie Childs; Tony McCarthy, Michael Fitzgibbon, James Naughton; Pádraig De Brún, Seamus O'Carroll, Jamie Lee.
