Jonny Cooper captains Dublin team to play the Underdogs

Jack O'Toole

Dublin defender Jonny Cooper captains the Jacks side to play the Underdogs on Friday night.

Cooper leads a largely inexperienced side against the Underdogs who named their side earlier on Friday with Longford forward Colm Flynn captaining the development team.

After being named as skipper, Flynn called upon his teammates not to fear this Dublin side, and to go out and relish what is the opportunity of a lifetime.

“Thanks lads, its a big opportunity tomorrow night against the Dubs.

“This is a once in a lifetime thing, 

“Try not to be nervous, do our best and that’s all we can do.”

The Dublin team is led by Cooper and managed by selector Paul Clarke.
