Others to stand out included Conor Shaw, Ciaran Fagan & Johnny Bermingham. _The second game against Wicklow was similar with Wicklow leading 2-2 to 1-6 at half time.

Brian O Reilly, Darren Giles & Ronan Wallace were prominent throughout. _The final game of a busy schedule kept the good wine until last. Dublin provided the opposition & came into the game unbeaten.
