They’ll party hard in Templeogue if St Jude's win their first Go-Ahead Dublin SFC title this Sunday but they’ll also break out the champagne in parts of Cork and Kerry.

The Wellington Lane club has benefited from the influence of several players from the two Munster football strongholds, as well as players from Kildare and Antrim.
