Dublin have found consistency, reckons Cunningham

Dublin hurling manager Ger Cunningham believes his players are slowly shedding their Jekyll and Hyde tag.

Dublin’s inconsistent nature is highlighted in their failure to string back-to-back progressive championship campaigns during Anthony Daly’s six-year reign. That unpredictability was again prevalent in this spring’s national league — Dublin impressively claiming the scalp of Tipperary and Kilkenny over the opening fortnight before imploding against Cork in round three, and, indeed, in the second half of their league semi-final bout with the Rebels.

“I don’t think there’s any real one route cause [to Dublin’s inconsistency],” said Cunningham.
