THE DUBLIN CAMOGIE senior team enjoyed an incredible end to their 2017 season, in which they bridged a 27-year gap to contest an All-Ireland semi-final.
Under the new management of five-time All-Ireland winner David Herity, Dublin scored a famous victory over a much-fancied Wexford side in the All-Ireland quarter-final before bowing out against Kilkenny at the penultimate stage.
Their journey to that point is chronicled in the new documentary ‘True Blues,’ which will be aired on eir sport 1 next Monday night 26 February at 9.30pm.
And a trailer for the programme indicates that it’s going to be a fascinating watch.
Produced by Marmalade Films, ‘True Blues’ will include some interesting behind-the-scenes footage from Dublin’s 2017 campaign, as well as interviews with various members of the squad, including the players and the Kilkenny-born manager.

Dublin are still progressing, and still searching for a first All-Ireland crown since 1984.
And speaking to The42 recently, St Vincent’s midfielder Eimear McCarthy says they are capable of surpassing their 2017 achievements to get their hands on the O’Duffy Cup.
“I do believe that we’re going to get there, we will get there. It’s not going to be an easy road to get there but we will do it.
“There is a firm belief there that hopefully this year we can win the All-Ireland and we will win it.”

But they were AI champions last week???
@Harry Corry: Everyone outside of Mayo hyped them up. Every mayo fan could see our defence was wide open against Galway. Conceded 17 scores, same thing again today but Tyrone much better defensively than Galway. It’s about finding the balance. Horan always plays attacking football. It was the exact same in his first stint. Great going forward but wide open in defence.
@Harry Corry: No Harry. Dublin were the Al champions last week. Don’t feel embarrassed. It can be confusing but Mayo have a way to go yet ;-)
@Desheen: I’m joking btw lads. Mayo are my 2nd favourite team after Cork. Never give up
@Harry Corry: they are a lot of people’s second favourites because they win feck all
Tyrone are probably the worst team to play against following a convincing win. No better team to get in your face and bring you back down to earth.
If this article doesn’t bring Mel out nothing will
@my name: Mel seems to have retired from being a contrary bollocks on the internet
@Miguel Sanchez: Mel is a prize ballocks
@Miguel Sanchez: ah you’d miss him all the same
@my name: he can be an awkward one and I’m from Tyrone. Hope he is ok though, havent seen him here in ages.
So much for big shot moran today, Motm last week but substituted at half time today…disappointing stuff once again from Mayo. Bottlers
