Dublin Blow Galway away
fodh No comments
Dublin proved beyond doubt that there is substance to the hype. They played Galway off the park for 55 minutes and then passed a real test of character in the final quarter, dealing with the concession of a second goal against the run of play and the sending off of Ryan O’Dwyer to book their place in the Leinster GAA Hurling Championship final. Although Galway inevitably came at Anthony Daly’s side in the closing stages, Dublin never looked troubled. In the end, the six-point winning margin didn’t do their superiority justice. Galway were toothless in attack, relying almost exclusively on...
League was just stepping stone: Carton

Dublin forward Peadar Carton says that the next step in the progression of hurling in the Capital is for Anthony Daly’s men to take the scalp of one of hurling’s hierarchy. “The next thing for Dublin is to take a big scalp.This match is a big game for both teams.Winning the league final was just a step we wanted to take. We’ve a few more steps we want to take,”said the O’Toole’s flyer ahead of Saturday’s Leinster SHC semi-final against Galway in O’Connor Park, Tullamore (7.0). Carton’s sentiments are echoed by his team-mate Alan McCrabbe who feels the Dubs are...

THERE was much to admire in the way Dublin hurlers handled the challenge put their way yesterday. For an emerging side like Dublin, days like yesterday are all about getting through: they will have known that far from fearing the newly-crowned league champions, Offaly would have relished the opportunity to test their mettle. It will take a few more years yet before Offaly go into matches against Dublin believing they don’t have a chance. This was Dublin’s valley game after the high of the league final. And no matter how much you guard against the shock, or how often people...
Carton’s star turn steadies Blue ship

Here’s the difference winning a league title makes to a team like Dublin. On a Saturday afternoon in Croke Park last July they made an ignominious exit from the championship to Antrim, conceding seven successive points to lose by one. It was an almighty collapse and instantly they were dismissed to the ‘too brittle’ files, labelled without another thought. Less than 12 months on at the same venue, an eight-point lead with 10 minutes remaining was a cushion that should have seen them home comfortably, especially with an extra man courtesy of Derek Molloy’s second yellow card two minutes earlier....
