Dublin better off without Dermo

Not a hint of an incident in yesterday's game. All Dublin players focused on the job in hand. Connolly's replacement scoring 6pts from play and 6pts from frees. Great skilfull player Dermo but do his negatives outweigh the positives he brings. I think Dublin are better off without him tbh. In probably 2 out of 3 games he's involved in some controversy.

Not really, he is going to add to a very dangerous half and full forward line. One game to go. TheUsername (Dublin) - Posts: 4445 - 17/07/2017 13:34:28 2018117 Link

Con isn't his replacement Andrews currently is. There's plenty of room for Con in close with Connolly picking him out from the half forwards Dublin need DC to win 3 in a row - no doubt about it. He'll be back in there as soon as he's ready. Scoring from distance will become important soon enough and no better man than DC when on form off both feet jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20600 - 17/07/2017 13:38:48 2018121 Link
Nobody is better off without a great player of real quality. Strange how a player who has been pivotal in 4 AIs titles can be considered a liability. Will be a very welcome addition if we can get through to the QFs. poguemahone (Dublin) - Posts: 365 - 17/07/2017 13:48:13 2018133 Link
He'll be fit and ready to go cos he's ignoring the training ban...... Superglue (Kerry) - Posts: 1283 - 17/07/2017 13:53:32 2018141 Link

Replying To Superglue: "He'll be fit and ready to go cos he's ignoring the training ban......" But how on earth can you expect the GAA to police such matters? It would take something so unbelievable arrogant and braizen as, oh I dunno, his own teammate openly stating that they're ignoring the rules, for the GAA to have any incling of what's happening. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5010 - 17/07/2017 14:57:32 2018197 Link

Replying To Superglue: "He'll be fit and ready to go cos he's ignoring the training ban......" Did the GAA not officially allow him to resume training with Dublin? Killarney.87 (Tipperary) - Posts: 2513 - 17/07/2017 20:33:03 2018360 Link

Oh my god , not another Connolly thread . superbluedub (Dublin) - Posts: 2837 - 17/07/2017 20:51:48 2018366 Link
It's a reasonable question , truth be told Kildare didn't pull any stunts and went about their business , we were always going to win I'd predicted that earlier in the week , Dermo will add the this group when we meet the big guns Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 17/07/2017 20:53:51 2018367 Link
Replying To Liamwalkinstown: "Yes. Yes they did. Comeford too" Pity Comerford got no benefit out of the training this summer. Assuming Dublin win the next day out. There will be some roar from the Dublin fans in Croke Park were Connolly to come on as a sub in a semi final. I can't see Dublin beaten this year. 4 in a row might be a bridge too far though.
