There’s one late change for Dublin. Davy Byrne replaces Tom Lahiff. He’ll most likely switch to the full-back line, with Eoin Murchan at wing-back and James McCarthy pushed to midfield.

Goal for Dublin from Dean Rock!

Dublin 1-3 Meath 0-2

12 mins – Bryan McMahon shoots wide for Meath, Sean Bugler hits one off the post for Dublin and then both Con O’Callaghan and Paddy Small are off target with shots.

14 mins – No mistake from Ciaran Kilkenny as he shoots over a typical point and Rock adds another.

15 mins – Half a goal chance for Meath but it doesn’t work out and the eventual shot for a point goes wide. Those are the type of chances they can’t spurn.

Goal for Dublin from Sean Bugler!

Dublin 2-8 Meath 0-2

23 mins – This is just ruthless from Dublin. Meath are trying desperately to close down point-scoring chances but suddenly the gaps open up with Robbie McDaid involved for a burst that culminates in Sean Bugler palming to the net.

Dublin 2-9 Meath 0-2

28 mins – Meath see another free count for nothing as Thomas O’Reilly’s attempt drops short, Paddy Small converts a chance at the other end for Dublin.

35 mins – Rock and Scully stretch Dublin’s advantage further. 16 points in it now.

Half-Time: Dublin 2-12 Meath 0-2

Well there’s not much more to say about that latest expression of Dublin dominance? We’ll be back shortly with the second-half action but this game is only heading in one direction with Dessie Farrell’s side on course to complete ten-in-a-row for the county.

Second-half action under way, Brian Howard on for Dublin. 

That half-time score makes grim reading for Meath fans. Ryan Byrne / INPHO Ryan Byrne / INPHO / INPHO

Johnny Cooper, who hurt his ankle near the end of the half, is gone off for Dublin with Howard coming in.

Dublin 2-13 Meath 0-3

40 mins – Dean Rock knocks over a free and then Thomas O’Reilly scores a dead ball for Meath, their first score since the 8th minute.

Dublin 2-13 Meath 0-4

41 mins – Nice effort by Cillian O’Sullivan off his left for Meath.

Subs: Cathal Hickey and Eoin Harkin in for Meath.

44 mins – John Small and Ciaran Kilkenny tap over points for Dublin, who have the luxury of bringing in a player of the calibre of Paul Mannion for Paddy Small.

Dublin 2-16 Meath 0-4

51 mins – Con O’Callaghan with Dublin’s last point, then HawkEye judges Dean Rock’s shot is wide. Meath introduce Jason Scully to their struggling side.

• Water Break: Dublin 2-16 Meath 0-4

So not many scores during that period, Dublin are still 18 points clear. They won last year’s final by 16 points and in 2014 it was 16 as well when they took on Meath.

Dublin 2-19 Meath 0-4

60 mins – Sean Bugler, Ciaran Kilkenny and Paul Mannion keep the scoreboard ticking over for Dublin.

61 mins – Meath get sight of goal, Joey Wallace fires in a shot under pressure but Cluxton beats it away.

Dublin 2-19 Meath 0-4

61 mins – Black card for Meath’s Ronan Jones as Rock taps over a free for Dublin.

Dublin 2-20 Meath 0-7

65 mins – So Meath have at least beat last year’s total on the scoreboard against Dublin with three points in a row arriving. Jason Scully, Joey Wallace and Jordan Morris all on target.

Red card for Dublin’s Cormac Costello.

Straight red for the Dublin substitute, not sure what it was for but he seemed at a loss when he saw the colour of the card.

Dublin 2-21 Meath 0-8

69 mins – Sean Bugler slams over a point for Dublin with a goal seemingly on. Jordan Morris clipped over a free for Meath. Three minutes of injury time will be played.

Dublin 2-21 Meath 0-9

71 mins – Meath grab another point through Jordan Morris.

Goal for Dublin from Niall Scully!

Full-Time: Dublin 3-21 Meath 0-9

A familiar story as Dublin win yet another Leinster senior football title. Again it’s another miserable experience for Meath and the state of the inter-county action in the province.

21 points to spare for Dublin, they’ll take on Donegal or Cavan on Saturday 5 December in the All-Ireland semi-final. Can anyone stop them in 2020? It’s the end of the championship road for Meath.

Thanks for joining us tonight.
