Rumours from the camp suggested Cian Lynch would play at 6 but John Kiely has chosen to move All-Star forward Hegarty to number 7
The only player over whom there is an injury doubt and who is not named in the match-day 26 for the weekend is forward Aidan McCarthy, whose quad problem rules him out.
Announced teams are not definitive, however, and up to four medical replacements are allowed with a doctor’s certificate. Clare’s medical team will make the call closer to throw-in. Galway manager Henry Shefflin has released an unchanged 15 for the match against Limerick – with one tactical switch. Gearóid McInerney and Daithí Burke swap starting positions and revert to their previous roles at centre back and full back, respectively.
Replacement Jason Flynn has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a hamstring injury and Shane Cooney also loses out with Gavin Lee and Jarlath Mannion taking their places on the bench.Nickie Quaid; Mike Casey, Dan Morrissey, Barry Nash; Diarmaid Byrnes, Kyle Hayes, Gearóid Hegarty; Will O’Donoghue, Darragh O’Donovan; David Reidy, Cian Lynch, Tom Morrissey; Aaron Gillane, Séamus Flanagan, Peter Casey.
