GAA team news:With Diarmuid Connolly suspended, Dublin coach Pat Gilroy has drafted midfielder Michael Darragh Macauley into his full forward line for Sunday's Leinster football final against Meath. Macauley was kept in reserve against Wexford in the semi-final after recovering from injury.
However, his introduction at the interval helped the All-Ireland champions turn around a match that might have gotten away from them and he would have been pushing for a place in the starting line-up regardless of Connolly’s suspension for a straight red card.
Eamon Fennell and Denis Bastick keep their places in midfield despite the return of Macauley while Cian O’Sullivan, another to make an impact of the bench against Wexford, comes into the half backs with Ger Brennan the players to make way.
Dublin(SFC v Meath): S Cluxton; M Fitzsimons, R O'Carroll, P McMahon; J McCarthy, K Nolan, C O'Sullivan; E Fennell, D Bastick; P Flynn, A Brogan, B Cullen; B Brogan, MD Macauley, K McManamon.
