They face Dublin tomorrow afternoon.

Laois' minor footballers have made three changes as they look for a first win over Dublin in fifteen years tomorrow. 

Danny McGrath, Kevin Byrne and Adam Hunt are in from the start, with Eoin Cawley, Eoin Johnston and Tom Bride dropping out. 

Conor Gorman's men defeated Westmeath in round one and another win here would see them advance straight to the semi-finals.

Eleven clubs are represented, Portlaoise, Annanough, St. Joseph's, Graiguecullen, Killeshin, Ballylinan, Kilcavan, Portarlington, Camross, Emo and Courtwood. 

The teams haven't met in the Minor Football Championship in thirteen years and the O'Moore's last win against Dublin at this level came fifteen years ago, so there's plenty of new history there to be written. 

Throw-in at Parnell Park tomorrow is at noon.
