Dubs star has cheeky quip as he dodges Ger Brennan question after Galway win

He wasn't having any of it!

Despite being six points down in the second half, the Dubs rallied and were soon back in front, with help from a Con O'Callaghan penalty.

Having lost the Leinster final to Westmeath and to Louth in Round 1 of the All-Ireland, the Sky Blues had some soul searching to do.

However, they were boosted by the return of manager Ger Brennan, following his 12-week ban, and produced two of their best performances in wins over Cavan and today's victory.

After the quarter-final win, Dublin keeper Evan Comerford was asked a cheeky question by ex-Monaghan player Conor McManus, regarding Brennan's return.

But the shot-stopper boxed clever and returned a quip of his own.

McManus asked: "Your best performances of the year have come since Ger Brennan is back.

"Is he taking all the credit for that now, is it all on Ger?"

Comerford replied: "You've probably swung that narrative now have you."

He had a great game in the nets and did well not to bite to that question.
