Kilkenny have been forced into a number of changes in personnel for Sunday's Leinster SHC clash with Galway in Salthill.
Goalkeeper Eoin Murphy (head knock), Adrian Mullen (groin/thigh) and Eoin Cody (ankle) have all been ruled out after last weekend's landslide win over Antrim, while Mikey Carey is not in the match-day squad.
Aidan Tallis is named between the sticks, while Tommy Walsh, Billy Ryan and Owen Wall are named to start.
Henry Shefflin meanwhile has named Jonathan Glynn on the bench for the game at Pearse Stadium.
The Ardrahan player, who last played for the Galway seniors in 2019 and has spent most of the past seven years living in New York, has been named at 26 for their key game against Kilkenny.
Conor Whelan, suspended for the final league game against Limerick, returns to the full-forward line, with Brian Concannon returning to the starting team at wing-forward.
2017 All-Ireland winning captain David Burke, who missed last season through injury, starts at midfield alongside Ronan Glennon.
Galway: Darach Fahy; Jack Grealish, Daithí Burke, Fintan Burke; Seán Linnane, Padraic Mannion, Cianan Fahy; Ronan Glennon, David Burke; Gavin Lee, Tom Monaghan, Brian Concannon; Conor Whelan, Conor Cooney, Cathal Mannion.

Pat Ryan has rung the changes for Cork's pivotal Munster SHC clash against Clare in Páirc Uí Chaoimh on Sunday.
The Rebels have made six switches to the side that lost to Waterford in Walsh Park, with Niall O'Leary, Eoin Downey, Tim O’Mahony, Ethan Twomey, Declan Dalton and Brian Hayes all coming into the side for the visit of Clare.
Ger Millerick, Damien Cahalane, Mark Coleman, Tommy O'Connell, Seán Twomey and Conor Lehane are the players to make way but all six are named on the bench.
Shane Kingston, absent from the panel for the loss in Walsh Park due to a hamstring injury, is available though also held in reserve.
A defeat for Cork on Sunday would leave them under enormous pressure to qualify, with games against Limerick and Tipperary to come.
Despite reported injury concerns over Conor Cleary and Darragh Lohan, Brian Lohan has named an unchanged Clare side, with Tony Kelly again on the bench.
Cork: Patrick Collins; Niall O'Leary, Eoin Downey, Sean O’Donoghue; Tim O’Mahony, Ciaran Joyce, Robert Downey; Ethan Twomey, Darragh Fitzgibbon; Declan Dalton, Shane Barrett, Seamus Harnedy; Brian Hayes, Alan Connolly, Patrick Horgan.
Clare: Eibhear Quilligan; Adam Hogan, Conor Cleary, Rory Hayes; Diarmuid Ryan, John Conlon, David McInerney; Darragh Lohan, Cathal Malone; David Fitzgerald, David Reidy, Peter Duggan; Aidan McCarthy, Shane O'Donnell, Mark Rodgers.
Tipperary manager Liam Cahill has handed a championship debut to Sean Hayes and given the nod to Barry Hogan in the goal for their Munster SHC opener against Limerick.
The McGrath brothers, Noel and John, have been named on the bench, with Tipp plumping for a half-forward line of Alan Tynan, Gearóíd O'Connor and Jason Forde, the latter two vying for free-taking duties.
The prolific Jake Morris joins debutant Hayes and Mark Kehoe in the inside forward line. Paddy Cadell, injured early in last year's Munster championship, starts on the bench as does the venerable Patrick 'Bonner' Maher.
Two-time All-Star Cathal Barrett has not recovered from a hamstring injury.
Limerick have made one change from the side that produced that remarkable comeback win over Clare. Mike Casey, who was forced off early with an injury in Ennis, is replaced by four-time All-Star corner-back Sean Finn.
Limerick: Nickie Quaid; S Finn, Dan Morrissey, Barry Nash; Diarmaid Byrnes, Declan Hannon, Kyle Hayes; Will O'Donoghue, Cathal O’Neill, Gearoid Hegarty, David Reidy, Tom Morrissey, Aaron Gillane, Seamus Flanagan, Cian Lynch
Tipperary: Barry Hogan; Johnny Ryan, Ronan Maher, Craig Morgan; Michael Breen, Bryan O'Mara, Conor Bowe; Willie Connors, Eoghan Connolly; Alan Tynan, Gearoid O'Connor, Jason Forde; Jake Morris, Mark Kehoe, Sean Hayes.
Wexford are unchanged for the trip to Corrigan Park to take on Antrim in the Leinster hurling championship.
Manager Keith Rossiter has kept faith with the team that let slip victory over Dublin last time out with the concession of two injury-time goals in a dramatic draw at Chadwicks Wexford Park.
Dunloy quartet Keelan Molloy, Seaan Elliott, Nigel Elliott and Ryan Elliott all start, having returned to the panel after the Allianz Hurling League. The Elliotts all featured in last week's loss to Kilkenny but it's a first appearance of the season for Molloy.
Wexford: Mark Fanning; Shane Reck, Niall Murphy, Matthew O'Hanlon; Simon Donohoe, Damien Reck, Conor Foley; Conor Hearne, Liam Óg McGovern; Cathal Dunbar, Kevin Foley, Rory O’Connor; Richie Lawlor, Lee Chin, Seamus Casey.
