Carlin finally makes it to the summit

Dermot Carlin is hoping he has finally nailed down a place in the Tyrone team, after almost a decade of trying.

Carlin turned 28 just a few weeks ago, but is already in his 10th season with the Tyrone squad.

He has never been able to establish himself as a regular, but having played the full 70 minutes in both championship games this season, fortune has turned in his favour.
