Well done to our lads after a hard earned win over Westmeath. They now are top of the group and a win over Kilkenny on Saturday week at Parnell Park will guarantee a Leinster final spot. They will be glad of the free weekend ahead and will have time to recover for the upcoming games. Here is the team and the scorers: Donal Burke had his usual blinder but full marks to Rian McBride for his tally of 6 points from play. Great to see Shane Barrett, Liam Rushe and Daire Gray back in contention again. Thanks to all supporters who made the journey including those who travelled on the Fodh bus.
Scorers – Dublin: D Burke 0-11 (7fs), R McBride 0-6, C Crummey 0-3, J Madden, F Whitely 0-2 each, C O’Callaghan, C Burke, D Sutcliffe 0-1 each. Westmeath: K Doyle 0-11 (10fs), N O Brien 1-3, K Regan, T Doyle 0-1 each.
Dublin: S Brennan ; J Madden , E O’Donnell , C O’Callaghan ; D Ryan , P Smyth , S Barrett ; C Burke , C Crummey ; D Burke , R McBride , D Sutcliffe ; P Crummey , R Hayes , A Mellett . Subs: F Whitely for P Crummey (h-t), E Dillon for Hayes (53), L Rushe for Mellett (58), D Gray for Barrett (59), M Schutte for Rushe (inj., 65).

Here’s hoping it can continue.
