Barry Cahill wary of curveball from former team-mate Rory Gallagher

Barry Cahill spent enough time with Rory Gallagher on the Old Navan Road during the 2000s to know he has something planned for Dublin on Saturday.

St Brigid’s team-mates for a few years, Cahill found the Donegal manager a deep thinker of the game. It’s why he, probably more than the average Dublin supporter, is slightly fearful ahead of the All-Ireland quarter-final.

“It’s going to be difficult and I expect Rory Gallagher to do something different. I know Rory quite well and just thinking about it when he sat down to plan for the year I’m sure he felt they would have to play Dublin at some point to get to an All-Ireland final or win an All-Ireland, so I think he will try something unusual.”
