Dublin senior football manager Ger Brennan has named his team for tomorrow’s O’Byrne Cup first round clash against against Laois.

The experimental line-up for the captain men sees Cuala’s Eoghan O’Callaghan and Niall O’Callaghan set to start at right corner-back and full-forward, respectively, with Castleknock’s Kevin Stephenson partnering Jack Feehan at centre-field.

Elsewhere, Jack Lundy of Ballinteer St John’s starts on ‘the 40’, with Sean Guiden (St Sylvester’s) and Conor Chawke (Castleknock) named in the corner-forward positions.

The game is set to mark Brennan’s first in charge of 2026 having succeeded Dessie Farrell as the Dubs’ new supremo back in August.

Throw-in at Ratheniska is at 1.30pm.
