DOUBLE BLOW…Armagh must absorb the loss of both Kevin Dyas and Andrew Murnin

ARMAGH manager Kieran McGeeney has tonight confirmed that Kevin Dyas and Andrew Murnin will play no part in their All-Ireland Championship campaign.

Dyas has been in rehab since having his lateral meniscus removed and although he hoped to play a part this season, that is no longer the case.

Murnin, meanwhile, has had a horrible run with injuries, particularly hamstring, and has been given space to recover properly.

There was positive news though as Ciaran McKeever completed a full in-house game in Inniskeen last Sunday and will be hoping for more minutes against Derry when the teams meet in a challenge match this weekend.
