579229 Dublin (NFL v Mayo): S Cluxton; P Conlon, M Fitzsimons, P McMahon; P Griffin, C O'Sullivan, G Brennan; E Fennell, R McConnell; A Hubbard, P Flynn, K Bonner; D Henry, M D MacAuley, K McManamon.

Subs: S Supple, C McCormack, N O'Connor, H Gill, K Nolan, P Casey, J Brogan, D Carrigan, D Magee, C Murphy, T Diamond, B Brogan, D Kelly, B McManamon, P Andrews.

Strong looking team... Gillers wants two points.



Am looking forward to seen what Micheal MaCauley is like at full forward, and that Cian O'Sullivan impressed me against Derry, but I can't understand why giller is persisting with Kevin Bonner.

Absolutely man.. we have some good options at full forward at the minute.. Plenty of lads battling for places... That's what we need...!!

Bonner is obviously putting the work in at training... and with our current game plan of getting men back behind the ball maybe he feels Bonner is well suited for this strategy

579255 Dublin have'nt beaten Mayo in Caslebar in the League since 1992, so I suppose you could say Mayo have a fair chance of winning this one.


-----


yes and before killarney wasnt it 1990 the last time we beat kerry in their back yard ? previous meetings mean nothing come sunday .. its a game of 70 minutes and thats that , mayo have as good a chance as dublin , simple as that


This is true Wayno, but I reckon the Mayo team will be a bit more prepared for this one than the Kerry team were in Killarney.

yeh me neither , especially when you have B.McMenamon on the bench and Bernard Brogan , MacAuley has been very good at full forward so far this year , he is likely to drop back as a third midfielder at times too . Cian O'Sullivan is class too but there are a few there who look promising , Kevin Mc's goal against Derry will be hard to beat for not only goal of the league but goal of the whole calendar year in my opinion , Blaine Kelly who isnt playing also looks good and Alan Hubbard looks like a good option and cornor forward

Would you believe i was just thinking the exact same thing ha ha


and yea i know what your saying and you could well be right but im quietly confident about this one , both teams will be high on confidence after winning their opening two games , if dublin can get off to a good start and gain a bit of momentum then i believe we can do it , this is just another minor step though , personally i think a loss might not be a bad thing , but a win and two points will be the main objective , if we win we are all but certain to avoid relegation , and that was our aim for the league prior to the league opener in Killarney especially with the experimental side .

Anyone know if the game is on tg4 on sunday? Might be a safer option to watch it in the house. All the talk on here of taking spinach and the like is making me a little wary i have to say. Dont forget, a few years ago the dubs fans burst on to the field while the game was still being played putting the players in real danger. Even cluxton had to tell them to cop on and get off the field til the game was over. He was clearly very embarrassed about his own supporters. It might even be time to ban dublin supporters from all away grounds. I know a number of good mayo supporters who will not be attending on sunday due to fears for their safety. That is not what the GAA is about

WB, i hear what you're saying? Will there be extra garda on duty at game? Maybe segragation would be the best way of dealing with potential trouble makers from the capital.

As far as i know the army and the garda riot squad are on standby, so the 50 or so dubs supporters who bother to travel had better behave. And that especially goes for well-known hill16 regulars and known ringleaders Liamwalkinstown and jimbodub

If this is not what its about then why were Mayo supporters subjecting Cluxton to fowl and abusive language for the entire game? I was there and it was like something out of Ibrox. Mayo supporters behaved like they were at a fair day faction fight during the 18th century.

Just do what the Dubs tell you to do and you'll be safe enough.

Ya I think two points is a reasonable target, although lookin at that line-up, i cant see where they will come from. Hubbard might kick one, but who will manage the other?
