Roscommon spring surprise as Dolan omitted for Dublin tie

ROSCOMMON manager Tommy Carr has surprisingly omitted star forward Frankie Dolan from his team for tomorrow's All-Ireland football qualifier against Dublin at Croke Park.

While Dolan was substituted at half-time in the Connacht final defeat to Mayo, he was still expected to start against the Dubs and the absence of his name from the team sheet was unexpected

The St Brigid's player, who was unlucky not to receive an Allstar last year after scoring 0-25 in championship games against Offaly and Kildare, is one of four changes from the team which collapsed against Mayo.
