Colm Lyons to ref the final

A sad reflection on modern society that Ursula Jacob has to speak publically about the online abuse she has received,
It is not just in sport, politicians also get it and it can be quite nasty

No. You must not have read the comments about her here a few weeks ago. OutdoorThreadmill and Co have decided that shes in the public eye so its fair game....

Rattled off your box, you really are a pity.

I'd reckon Colm Lyons will get all Ireland final. Fergal Horgan is down to ref this weekend in the semi final.

Looks like this is going to happen. Big appointment for him

Mattie Kenny steps down as Dublin hurling manager

It follows a disappointing campaign in which they were dumped out of the championship on scoring difference.

Eddie or Davy seem to be the favs. Would love to see Dublin be competitive. Obviously not to the point of their football compatriots.

Davy be fun, but not for the poor Dubs

Like to see Brennan get it. A few here mentioned him for the Cork job, would be interesting see what he can do

Dublin have had some good minor and u20 teams recently.

They're current seniors are competitive but lacking a bit of star quality.

Any manger will be well resourced for backroom / logistical needs. It's an attractive in many respects but I still get the feeling they're not producing the type of natural forwards that the more traditional counties routinely do.

That's what will catch them no matter who is in charge or how well they're going. Daly produced a top class side that was lacking in that department and they haven't really come close to that level since.

The current round robin isn't helping them either...having to play KK, Gal and Wex in a condensed schedule is what they're finding tough also imo.

Dublin are going now where; not one inside forward of top quality, after losing their best defender to football……very hard job but with Wexford in Leinster a third place spot is always possible and would be a success
