Kilkenny still haunted by 'what if?' questions from Galway defeat 

Six of the Dublin team that lined out in that game - Michael Fitzsimons, John Small, Jack McCaffrey, Brian Fenton, James McCarthy and Paul Mannion - have since retired or departed.

Ciaran Kilkenny has opened up about the devastation of last year's Championship defeat to Galway, revealing he fixated on the turning points in the game for some time afterwards.

Both counties will return to Croke Park tomorrow evening in Round 6 of the National League, a repeat of last June's All-Ireland quarter-final tie there.
