Dublin Senior Football Team Announced For Roscommon League Opener

Sat, 15th May 2021

The Dublin Senior Football Team has been announced for Sunday’s opening Allianz Football League game of 2021 against Roscommon (1.45pm- live on TG4).

It shows two changes from the starting team in Dublin’s All-Ireland Final victory last December.

Evan Comerford takes his place in goal, with Cormac Costello starting in the full forward line. They replace Stephen Cluxton and Dean Rock respectively from the victory over Mayo last time out.

Michael Fitzsimons, David Byrne and Jonny Cooper make up the full back line, with Eoin Murchan, John Small and Robert McDaid ahead of them in the half back line.

Brian Fenton and James McCarthy are named to start in midfield, behind Niall Scully, Ciarán Kilkenny and Seán Bugler in the half forward line.

Paddy Small and Con O’Callaghan join Costello in the full forward line.

The game throws in at 1.45pm and is live on TG4. You can also listen to live commentary on RTÉ Radio One, while live updates will also be available on the Dublin GAA Twitter page.
