Brogan wary of bigger Lake test

DUBLIN captain Alan Brogan admits that Westmeath will present a very different challenge to that offered by Louth in Croke Park on Sunday when the sides meet in the Leinster semi-final.

Thirteen-point winners over the Wee County two days ago, Paul Caffrey’s side should find space and scores far more difficult against an outfit that has adapted Ulster-like defensive tactics to such rich effect this season.

The Lake men have conceded less than an average of ten points a game in 2008 and one of their victims was Dublin when the counties met in Navan for the Division Two final early last month.
