Dublin youngster promoted to senior side

Three members of last year's Leinster MHC winning side have been called up for duty with the Dublin senior hurlers this weekend.

Corner back Tomas Brady, midfielder John McCaffrey and corner forward Keith Dunne will line out for the Dubs in their Leinster SHC quarter-final against Westmeath on Sunday (O'Moore Park, Portlaoise, throw-in 2.10pm).

All three players were used during the capital side's recent NHL Division Two title-winning campaign.

Dublin manager Tommy Naughton has left a vacancy at left corner forward as Alan McCranne will undergo a fitness test on his knee injury. If he fails it, the experienced Tomas McGrane could be drafted in.

O'Toole's clubman Philip Brennan captains the team for the first time in a championship fixture.

DUBLIN (SHC v Westmeath): G Maguire; P Brennan (capt), K Ryan, T Brady; M Carton, R Fallon, T Moore; D Sweeney, J McCaffrey; S McDonnell, L Ryan, D Curtin; K Dunne, K Flynn, AN Other.
