The Blacks are unchanged from the side that shocked Greystones in the semi-final at Dr Hickey Park. Captained by flanker Bernard Keaney, their best known player is 39-year-old player/coach stalwart Henry O'Toole at full-back. Coaching assistant Aidan O'Halloran will be well known to Offaly gaelic football supporters, while prop Fergal Wood is a cousin of Keith Wood. The sides met in the very first game of the League back in September in a game that ended in a 21-21 draw at The Monastery Field. Many of the pundits are plumping for Trinity who will start as favourites, but that will suit the All Blacks perfectly as they showed in the semi-final that they are no respecters of such standings. Whatever happens, HQ can certainly expect a large body of Connemara fans to Dublin on Sunday. And of course the very best of luck from all at Connacht Rugby to Henry O’Toole, Aidan O’Halloran, Bernard Keaney and the entire squad all the best for Sunday. Come on the All Blacks! Connemara. H O'Toole, A Keogh, M Foyle, P O'Neill, P O'Toole; F O'Rourke, D Keogh; F Wood, T King, G King, F Madden, K Keogh, N Walsh, G Burke, B Keaney (capt). |
