Replying To Damothedub:  "Disappointed Dublin were beaten game was definitely there for the taking , that said Kerry look a different level altogether, great performance Dublin under 15 winning Foley tournament in Wexford , always a silver lining"
Don't know I wasn't overly impressed with Kerry apart from one player head and shoulders above the rest of minor grade in Clifford, him aside Derry will match them and if they can curtail him some how they have every chance.

I got a chance you see Kerry earlier in the year in the flesh , they are a savage attacking unit , trust me , that said minor is the most fickle of ages we played Galway in challenge matches in hurling and they weren't anything special , look who are all Ireland champions

Thanks for all your posts on the young Dubs this year mate, been great and insightful stuff.

Overall it's been a good year with the U21 success and it's been great to see some of those lads being brought on to the senior panel, have high hopes for Howard in pratcicular hope we might see a bit of him in the league next year.

Minors can be proud of themselves with a Leinster in the bag and unlucky not to get further.

Best of luck to your own lad next year as well mate, keep us in the loop with how he's getting on, it's great to hear your expenses inside the set up,I like most on here will be rooting for him.

A tale of two cities, Dublin North continue to dominate at underage football Na Fianna taking the A minor Football title , with supporting wins in other divisions for other teams north of the Liffey, Vincent's and Castleknock doing the business in 15-s and 16s, when you look at the hurling honours over the year majority went south side.

In fairness Crokes won both the U13 and U14 football for the first time in a long time I think

Dublin colleges beat Dublin minor hurlers today in DCU, hard to gauge too much as not sure of the make up of the minor team first team players or squad players plus the minor lads that are on the college squad played with the Colleges , bit of work to be done with the minors for this year ,colleges looking strong going into Leinster semi final on Feb 10th

Dublin north Colleges this Saturday v Kilkenny CBS in Portlaoise big ask , lads going well and played a challenge match v Dublin under 21s last Friday more than held their own in first half going in four points down , hopefully run out will be of use come Saturday , have seen this years minors play just once now at under 17 hard to gauge
