No changes in Dublin XV for quarter-final
Dublin manager Paul Caffrey has kept faith with his Leinster final-winning side for Saturday's All-Ireland SFC quarter-final clash with Tyrone (throw-in 3.30pm).
Caffrey put his players through their paces at a training session tonight, and had no injury worries to report.
That means stalwarts Senan Connell, Darren Homan and Darren Magee, three of the survivors from Dublin's last Leinster success in 2002, will have to be contented with bench duty again.
Kilmacud midfielder Magee, who recently postponed his plans to spend the summer in the United States, has caught the eye in training however, and is expected to be used at some stage at Croke Park.
Team captain Paddy Christie, who was forced off early with a groin injury in the Dubs' one-point Leinster final defeat of Laois, is back to full fitness and starts at full-back, with left corner back Stephen O'Shaughnessy (shoulder) also fully-recovered.
Caffrey has retained Shane Ryan's services at midfield, while much will depend on free-taker Tomas Quinn, the match-winner against Laois, who has hit 0-20 (0-13f, 0-1 sideline, 0-2 '45') so far in the championship.
Saturday's tie will be the first championship meeting between the sides since the 1995 All-Ireland final which Dublin won by a point.
