Defense easier than attack. That's a hard selection to be honest...


Cluxton
Fitzsimmons
O'Carroll
McMahon
Small
O'Sullivan
McCaffrey
Fenton
McCarthy
Connolly
Kilkenny
Flynn
Bernard Brogan
O'Callaghan
Dean Rock

It's not easy to pick a better one than that.

Cooper for O'Carroll, the rest it's hard to argue with.

2011 Kerry
2012 Donegal
2013 Mayo
2014 Kerry
2015 Dublin
2016 Mayo
2017 Mayo
2018 Dublin
2019 Kerry
2020 Dublin

The way All-Ireland role of honour could have been the last ten years however Kerry, Mayo found ways to lose the 2011, 2013,2016,2017,2019 finals more than Dublin won them.

Wasn't a fan of Cooper's but then he was at stuff I wasn't a fan of so maybe just put me off him.

;D Lucky in all but two of them.

I think now we are seeing how good Jim Gavin was. Also though there was one of those AIs Mayo should have won and it would have been down to Gavin. The years have kind of blurred into one for me but he started a forward line without 3 of their best guys and they came on second half and rescued them.

Anyone want to pick the best 15 made up of dublin players from 2010-2020?

Cluxton
Cooper
O'Carroll
Philly
McCarthy
O'Sullivan
McCaffrey
MDMA
Fenton
Flynn
Kilkenny
Connolly
Mannion
Rock
Bernard Brogan

Tough one to leave out Con and Fitzsimons . Put Mannion in for left footer and Dean to take frees. Con if plays on 2019 will go down as one the greats. Rory was better full back and Cooper and McMahon probably marked higher calibre of players than Fitzy in AI finals. Fitzy get better with age.

Kerry got their fair share of luck in 2014!
You can forget about Sean Cavanagh as far as he's a man!

Kev Mac 1st sub in.

Dubs don't play with 3 in FB line either...no team ever keeps 3 up against them.

While I was bored watching their Jogball (jog and handpass to the D then tap over) I was always intrigued at how they all went forward...and left 1 on 1 at the back usually....no team ever cottoned on to banging a ball in 1 on 1 from 60yards or more out immediately after a turnover (not that the Dubs were often turned over

Alan Brogan wasn't at best 2010-2015. Player of year in 2011 but bar that played best football in the noughties.  We def be team 2000-2001.

If the ratio of greatness is #Sams/Cost of winning them, the Dubs look bad

Armagh18

Anyone want to try and pick a non dub team of the decade to beat them?

imtommygunn

That is a tough one. Would include quite a few Mayo and Kerry, Michael murphy, Conor McManus and a few Tyrone ones. (Keegan, murphy, McManus the certs )

How is cian O'Sullivan remembered? Mixed feelings on him. Sometimes brilliant and at other times woeful.
