Dublin graduates ready for next level
The seniors’ appearance in a first Liberty Insurance All-Ireland Senior Championship semi-final since 1990 at the Gaelic Grounds today (5.15pm) is just the latest signal of the graph’s upward spiral, with the second string already booked into the Premier Junior final at Croke Park on September 10.
Even more significantly, the Minors and U16s reached the last four of their campaigns, suggesting that there is a conveyor belt of talent coming through to ensure depth, particularly with many of the All-Ireland U16-winning team of 2012 – the Dubs’ first win at that grade in 30 years – now graduating.
