Dublin v Westmeath/Carlow (1 June 2013)

You not win nothing unless you put Brogan full forward and built the team round him and not stick him in the corner where he can be forced onto 1 foot. Also O`Sullivan ok in midfield until you come up against 2 out and out midfielders that Cork and Mayo have and thats when the dublin midfield will struggle.

Are you just assuming Dublin play a traditional three-man foward line? Andrews doesn't play full-forward, most of the time he has the ball he's dropping it in to Mannion or Brogan. If you are playing a three-man forward line Rock is the obvious man for the 14 jersey.

I watch Dublin play twice this yr, Andrews makes most of his runs from the full forward line taking out brogan running lines and he in turn get forced out wide

Berno needs plenty of space around him.

I'm not sure about that - think he's well able to win his own ball.

Put him on a tight heavy pitch with a sweeper in front of him (e.g O'Byrne cup final in January) and he can struggle

[Jinxy]

That's what I just said!

Bernard Brogan only needs a inch of space to cause damage. Diarmuid Connolly is the Dublin forward needs plenty of space around him.
