I'm sure it happens in most counties that the starting 15 play central 'spine' positions for their clubs, indeed quite a few goalkeepers are outfield players.
Maybe some marquee corner forwards also do likewise for their clubs. Are most teams made up from 2 full backs, 3 centre backs, 4 midfielders, 3 centre forwards, 2 full forwards and a 15?
Can anyone list the probable line ups for the 2 finals and where they play for their clubs?

3.J Cooper, Na Fianna,

That's the Dublins backs from the last day, do they all play there for their clubs?

A lot of midfielders on the Dublin side which is to be expected, as clubs tend to play their best players(except scoring forwards) in the middle third.
The forwards seem to be quite close to an orthodox six, maybe this is partly why they are such an effective unit?
Outside of McMahon, there are very few in the full back line, in either code.
