Cuala quartet selected for Dubs versus Clare

Fri, 31st March 2017

Dublin’s starting 15 for Sunday’s NHL Division 1 relegation duel with Clare in Ennis (4.0) contains four members of Cuala’s All-Ireland club winning side.

The Dubs make five changes in total for Sunday’s big clash with Conor Dooley replacing the suspended Gary Maguire in goals.

In defence Cian O’Callaghan and Oisín Gough will start in the full-back line, flanking the in-form Eoghan O’Donnell.

Darragh O’Connell, Man of the Match in the All-Ireland club decider, will partner Ben Quinn in a pacey 'engine room' while up front David Treacy is selected at left half-forward.
