Pic: Ray McManus / SPORTSFILE THE black injury clouds that have cast a constant dark shadow over the Sky Blue hurling landscape for the past year and more keep lifting. Last night marked another significant development for Dublin manager Anthony Daly – his so-called ‘Cruciate Three’ all made their playing comebacks in the county colours. Stephen Hiney, Conal Keaney and Tomás Brady all lined out in last night’s SH challenge against Waterford – the first time they have featured in the Sky Blue jersey since suffering season-ending knee injuries at different stages of last...

Sutcliffe to lift the Blues
Comeback: Danny Sutcliffe. Photo: Caroline Quinn DANNY SUTCLIFFE has declared himself fit and be available for Dublin’s opening Leinster SHC clash with Laois or Carlow on June 2. The in-form St Jude’s youngster who enjoyed an inspired league campaign in Dublin’s attack had set alarm bells ringing when he picked up a hand injury in a club game and was fitted with a cast, which he has since had removed. Management feared he had suffered a broken bone but a subsequent scan revealed no serious damage. “There is no fracture anyway,” Sutcliffe explained. “That was the worst case scenario. I’ve...
Boland on the double for minor hurlers
DUBLIN 4-24 CARLOW 0-3 Dublin’s minor hurlers bounced back from their disappointing defeat to Wexford seven days earlier when totally outclassing Carlow in Saturday’s Leinster MHC quarter-final at Dr Cullen Park. The Dubs were in a different league from first whistle til last and progress to meet Kilkenny in the provincial semi-final Saturday, June 24 – Wexford and Laois will meet in the other semi-final. Cian Boland grabbed two of Dublin’s goals with Paul Winters and Oisin O’Rorke hitting the others in this one-sided clash. Dublin were quickley into their stride with a string of early points and when O’Rorke...
Slick Crokes Kil’ off the Craobh
  Kilmacud Crokes 3-11    Craobh Chiarain 0-9 KILMACUD CROKES recorded their second successive win in Group A of the Dublin SHC following a comfortable 11-point victory over Craobh Chiaráin at a gloomy O’Toole Park last night. The winning margin was embellished somewhat by two late goals but there was little doubting the quality and application of Crokes, who at this early juncture look well primed to have a prolonged run in the championship. Ross O’Carroll was the game’s dominant personality, scoring five points from play over the hour in sticky conditions that generally favoured defenders while Ryan O’Dwyer chipped...
Two changes for Dublin minor hurlers
Shane Barrett and Caolan Conway come into the Dublin minor hurling team to face Carlow. The holders, who were beaten by Wexford after extra time in the first round, meet the Scallion Aters in a crucial back-door encounter at Dr Cullen Park on Saturday afternoon. Barrett is selected at corner back, with Seán McClelland moving out to the wing, while Conway has recovered from injury and will start on the 40. Cormac Costello moves to midfield to partner Kevin O’Flynn and Conor McHugh moves from the engine-room to wing forward. Dublin (Leinster MHC v Carlow): Cian Mac Gabhann; Shane Barrett,...
Keaney comeback hands massive boost to Dublin
Conal Keaney in action for Dublin. Photo: Sportsfile DUBLIN hurlers have received a major pre-championship boost with the return of cruciate victim Conal Keaney to full competitive action. The Ballyboden St Enda’s star made his long-awaited return by coming through a full championship match for his club on Wednesday night and even scored a point from play. It was Keaney’s first full game since rupturing both his cruciate and lateral knee ligaments in a motorcycle accident on the eve of last year’s All-Ireland quarter-final against Limerick. Also in action in the same game was his club and Dublin team-mate Stephen...

Vins impress in outclassing Cuala
09 May 2012 | hill16.ie INFLUENTIAL: St Vincent’s Cian McBride. ST VINCENT’S 3-18 CUALA 2-8 Diarmuid Connolly and John Hetherton were the scorers-in-chief as St Vincent’s impressively overcame the challenge of Cuala in this Dublin SHC ‘A’ Group C clash at Parnell Park on Wednesday night. Hetherton charged down an attempted clearance by Cuala keeper, Fintan O’Brien, in the tenth minute to raised the first green flag and before the break the influential Connolly showed great reflexes to bat the sliotar home after his original effort cannoned off the upright. With Hetherton firing over a couple of superb first half...
Lucan leave Boden in their slipstream
09 May 2012 | hill16.ie LUCAN SARSFIELDS 0-16 BALLYBODEN ST ENDA’S 2-6 Lucan made little of the difficult conditions to defeat reigning champions, Ballyboden St Enda’s, in this Dublin SHC ‘A’ Group C duel at Parnell Park on Wednesday night. The clubs have clashed on many memorable occasions towards the latter end of the championship in recent with Boden always coming out on top but this encounter belonged to a very focussed and economical Lucan. Playing with wind advantage in the opening half Lucan laid the foundations for their victory as they led 0-9 to 0-0 after 23 minutes. All...
