The Dubs' manager said Cluxton is not currently part of the Dublin panel, but stressed he is not retired. "It definitely did grab headlines because we are so used to Dublin being so ruthless, demolishing teams and burying them," Donaghy said. That shows you the level this Dublin team have gone to, that we are expecting these 20-point hammerings every time they take to the pitch." You saw Dublin inside in Thurles this year against Kerry missing a lot of chances you would not associate with them. Meath got a backlash last year off this Dublin team, and I hope they are preparing for one again because Dublin are really going to want to come out and put that performance to bed."
