Dubs to name suspended Connolly in team to play Mayo

As Dublin late last night made a case for him in front of the Central Appeals Committee (CAC) in Croke Park, the St Vincent’s man is likely to have been included by Jim Gavin in the 26-man match-day panel as he would not be permitted to be admitted as a late inclusion.
Speaking before yesterday’s meeting, Dublin chairman Sean Shanley said bringing Connolly’s case to the Disputes Resolution Authority was a strong consideration in the event the CAC rejected the appeal.
