"You try playing in front of 82,000 people in a Leinster Final" that's the response from Dublin's 1995 All-Ireland winning senior footballer Jason Sherlock to the chorus of disapproval over the way some of Paul Caffrey's side celebrated their scores in the provincial decider.

"You try playing in front of 82,000 people in a Leinster Final": that's the challenge from Dublin's 1995 All-Ireland winning senior footballer Jason Sherlock to the chorus of disapproval over the way some of Paul Caffrey's side celebrated their scores in the provincial decider.
