Dublin team to play Mayo: Diarmuid Connolly included but no place for Bernard Brogan

Diarmuid Connolly has made Dublin's 26-man squad for their All-Ireland semi-final with Mayo - but there is no place for Bernard Brogan.

Connolly, who made his first Championship start since 2017 last Sunday, has been named on the bench.

There will be no involvement though for 35-year-old Brogan who came off the bench against Tyrone and bagged a point.

Sean Bugler's reward for a man-of-the-match display in Omagh is a place in Jim Gavin's squad.

Overall, there are wholesale changes to the largely second string outfit that started last time out.

But it is expected that the starting lineup will be tinkered come throw-in with experienced defenders Jonny Copper and Philly McMahon likely to be involved from the off.

Dublin:  S Cluxton; D Byrne, C O'Sullivan, M Fitzsimons; J McCaffrey, J McCarthy, J Small; B Fenton, Michael D Macauley; N Scully, C O'Callaghan, B Howard; P Mannion, D Rock, C Kilkenny.

Subs:  E Comerford, P Andrews, S Bugler, D Connolly, J Cooper, C Costello, E Lowndes, P McMahon, K McManamon, E Murchan, P Small.
