Replying To BarneyGrant:  "Didn't. Which was against general trend. Will compensate next time. My favourite team to beat. Beyond any measure."
You've got your facts wrong again.
As far as I can make out Galway and Dublin played each other 15 times since Galway entered the Leinster championship:
Galway won 8, Dublin 6 and 1 Draw.
As for your dislike of Galway, may you carry your burden with dignity!

Thoroughly deserved, he was brilliant this year. A great bit of stuff.

Dublin minor football final at 10.30am tomorrow!

Ive seen some strange timings but this is odd. I assume it might be to facilitate Fianna people travelling to game v Martins in Wexford.

I just read a stat, that Cian O'Sullivan is only Dublin's 8th Ever Hurling All Star....

A reminder that he finished as joint top scorer from play.
Hell of an achievement.

Congrats again to him,

He's also Dublin's 2nd ever Cian O'Sullivan to get an All-Star. That's some achievement.

Congratulations to Cian. You are correct in that it is the second Cian O Sullivan to win an All star for Dublin. O Sullivan a very popular name in Cork and Kerry.Indeed Cian the footballers parents both come from Kerry and its interesting that two different Tom O Sullivan s have won all stars for Kerry in football also.

Na Fianna beaten is a bit of a surprise but I suppose they were riding their luck a bit in the final v l.S. I thought Lucan were the better team. Still they were great last year and did us proud fair play.

Two different Dermot Earley's were awarded two all- stars each representing two different counties in two different provinces in two different millennia!

Not so sure it is that much of a surprise this year tbh.

NF have rode their luck on more than one occasion.

Being 2pts up in injury time, only for their opponents to hit the last 3 scores, and prevail by 1-21 to 2-17.
Although NF had a great chance to put some daylight between the teams but made a mess of a glorious goal chance late on.

Fair play to St Martin's who had Rory O'Connor top score with 9pts.

What is bad for Na Fianna can only be good for Dublin Hurling in that it gives the Glasnevin men a bit of a break now before playing for Dublin early in the New Year.

Over to Boden now......
