Paul Curran believes Alan Brogan 'still has plenty to offer' Dublin and suggests that Jim Gavin should play him in the full-forward line alongside his brother Bernard.

The three-time All-Star is due back in training with Dublin this week and, speaking to The Examiner, the sky blues' former half-back said: "I think Alan still has plenty to offer inside, close to goal.

"Dublin have played him more in the half-forward line in the last couple of years. The reality is that wherever you play him he will bring a lot to it.

"But I personally would like to see him closer to goal in a full-forward line with his brother. I think as a pair they would bring an awful lot together in there.

"They understand each other's game inside out and it's something I'd love to see."

Curran added: "I think if he's injury free and playing well, he's going to start.

"I wouldn't be worried about age or anything like that. It's all to do with form and being injury free and if Alan ticks those boxes then he will be in the team."
