Cody: Gavin's replacement must 'not try to be Jim Gavin'

Brian Cody, the most successful GAA manager of all time, has urged Jim Gavin's replacement in Dublin to be himself and to not fall into the trap of attempting to emulate his predecessor.

Gavin has called it quits as Dublin manager after guiding his county to six All-Ireland titles in seven seasons, five less than Cody has managed in his 21-seasons in charge of the Kilkenny hurlers so far.
