Liberty Insurance Premier Junior All Ireland Championship
Dublin v Offaly
Saturday 8th Of July
Venue: Parnells GAA Club, Coolock
Throw-In: 2:30pm
Dublin Premier Junior manager Shane Plowman has picked the same 15 that started last weekends game against Waterford.
Not surprising considering how well they played against the Déise in Walsh Park last Saturday afternoon.
Dublin will be aiming to take the momentum from that victory into tomorrow’s game against Offaly who head to the Capital for what will be their opening championship match of 2017.
Dublin looked particularly sharp
last weekend and Waterford struggled to contain their dangerous forward unit particularly the impressive trio of Emer Keenan, Laoise Quinn and Evelyn Twomey.
Defensively the girls in blue looked rock solid against Waterford and any team that faces them this championship will be made to work extremely hard for any scores.
With the advantage of a game already under their belts, a tight defence, dominant midfield, potent forward unit and home advantage Dublin should make it two wins from two tomorrow and put themselves in a really strong position to qualify for the business end of the championship.
