Dubs’ disaster as Griffin ruled out for the season

DUBLIN’S Allianz NFL and Leinster title hopes have been rocked by confirmation that captain Paul Griffin will miss the rest of the year.

Griffin crumpled in agony after landing awkwardly against Monaghan last Saturday night and scans revealed he ruptured cruciate knee ligaments.

The experienced Kilmacud Crokes defender was hoping for the best but scans yesterday revealed the worst possible news.
