Dublin manager Pat Gilroy has unsurprisingly named an unchanged team for Sunday's Leinster SFC semi-final against Wexford at Croke Park (throw-in 4pm).

It says something when just over three months into the year, Finian Hanley admits he’s enjoying his football more than ever.

Mayo 0-20 Dublin 0-8

Tipperary footballers are about to suffer a devastating pre-championship blow with the news star forward Barry Grogan is on the verge of moving to the US for work purposes.

PAT GILROY was keen to play down the significance of Dublin’s early morning training as they overcame Carlow in their Bord na Mona O’Byrne Cup opener at Dr Cullen Park.

Dublin manager Pat Gilroy will not name his team until just before throw-in for Sunday's Bord na Móna O'Byrne Cup opener against Carlow at Dr Cullen Park.

IT was billed as the crowning moment of a sensational season for the Brogan brothers but, in the end, a little known substitute for St Brigid’s stole the show.

IT doesn’t get more local than this.

ST OLIVER Plunkett’s/Eoghan Ruadh made hard work in accounting for Lucan Sarsfields at Parnell Park last Saturday.

IRELAND’S chances of regaining the Cormac McAnallen Trophy have been dented by confirmation Alan Brogan will be unable to make the trip to Australia for the International Rules tests in Melbourne and the Gold Coast.

FORMER Dublin captain Colin Moran believes the extra week’s preparation has given Pat Gilroy the edge over Mickey Harte in the all-important midfield battle tomorrow.

Eamon Fennell has won the battle to replace the injured Michael Darragh Macauley in the Dublin midfield.

BERNARD BROGAN says Dublin must put an end to Wexford’s goal rush in Sunday’s Leinster final.

Dublin are likely to field a changed midfield for their Leinster SFC final clash with Wexford next month.

THERE is a good reason most of the post-game debate has centred on Meath referee Cormac Reilly and his decision to award a late and decisive free to Bernard Brogan and Dublin in a Leinster semi-final that failed live up to its billing.

The participation of midfielder Michael Darragh Macauley in Dublin's Leinster SFC semi-final against Kildare next Sunday is in some doubt.

THIS time last year, Bryan Cullen was still struggling to tie his shoelaces but on Sunday the versatile Skerries player will wear the captain’s armband as Dublin get down to summer business starting with Laois at Croke Park.

Dublin manager Pat Gilroy says he had to make some tough decisions when picking the team to face Laois in Sunday's Leinster SFC quarter-final.

DUBLIN manager Pat Gilroy has revealed he will embark on staging a second successive season of early morning winter training sessions, starting at 6.30am tomorrow.

Dublin may have fallen at the penultimate stage of the All-Ireland Championship, but the pain of the 1-15 to 1-14 defeat to Cork is likely to spur Pat Gilroy's side onto greater things in the future.

TO the victor the spoils, and the label of showing ‘bottle’, but Cork’s stuttering march to next month’s final owes most to Dublin’s utter lack of composure – and it would be a foolish Rebel who would view this triumph in any other light.

CORK’S storming finish was up there with Dawn Run winning the Cheltenham Gold Cup.

IT has to be rare for a team of such depth and experience to produce such error-ridden fare for so long and remaining standing in the Championship.

IT was dramatic but hardly surprising.

THE clash of Dublin and Louth looked like being the tie of the Qualifiers but it turned into a major anti-climax. Maybe we shouldn’t be that surprised.
