Following the disappointment of defeat to Roscommon, Galway will look to get their National Football League campaign back on track on Sunday (1st March) when they travel to take on Division 1 leaders Donegal.

The Tir Conaill men are 13 games unbeaten in Ballyshannon, but the Tribesmen have a good recent record against the Ulster champions.  They drew on their last trip to Letterkenny in 2020, with goals from Johnny Heaney and Sean Kelly securing a 2-8 to 2-7 win in manager Padraic Joyce's first season in charge.

Galway have made three changes to the starting team with Liam Silke, Ciarán Mulhern and Oisin Mac Donnacha all named in the starting 15.

Galway's Johnny Heaney has taken a year out but hopes to return to the maroon and white in 2027.  He caught up with Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly to chat about how things are going and to look ahead to the team's trip to Donegal.
