ALAN BROGAN HAS been named at corner-forward in the Dublin side to face Mayo in Sunday’s All-Ireland semi-final at Croke Park.
Brogan was forced to miss the quarter-final victory over Laois after sustaining a groin injury against Meath in the Leinster final, but Pat Gilroy and company believe that the St Oliver Plunkett’s/Eoghan Ruadh has recovered well enough to start the pivotal clash.
The 30-year-old will link up with his brother Bernard and Diarmuid Connolly, as Eoghan O’Gara drops out.
Ger Brennan also comes into the side at corner-back in place of Philly McMahon, while Cian O’Sullivan slots in at left corner-back. Kevin Nolan reverts to the wing from the heart of the defence.
