Wexford have started three championship debutants for their Bank of Ireland senior football championship clash with Meath in Croke Park on Sunday (2.10pm).

Wing-back Graeme Molloy, wing-forward and captain Ciarán Deely, and corner-forward Liam Murphy are all starting at this level for the first time.

Indeed, St James' clubman Molloy - a member of the county Under-21 team for the past two years - will be playing his first-ever senior game for the county.

Full-back Philip Wallace, who broke a bone in his right hand in the last league game against Armagh six weeks ago, has been selected after returning to full training last week.

Wexford SF team to play Meath: J Cooper; C Morris, P Wallace, N Murphy; P Curtis, D Murphy, G Molloy; R Stafford, D Kinsella; C Deely, P Colfer, R Barry; L Murphy, PJ Banville, M Forde.
