Shields ponders damage limitation on Dublin duo

THEY have been one of the central tenets of Dublin’s progress this summer.

Bernard Brogan has been established as the go-to guy in the capital attack over the last few seasons but in recent weeks he has elevated his play to a higher level with a series of glittering displays.

If sweetly-struck points have been Brogan’s calling card, goals are the currency that his full-forward line colleague Eoghan O’Gara trades in. The form of Brogan and O’Gara has drawn plenty admirers this season, including one of the men detailed to watch them in next Sunday’s All-Ireland semi-final.
