Shane Walsh survives baptism by fire in Dublin championship as ... (SportsJOE.ie)

Not many gave Cuala a chance when they drew Kilmacud Crokes in the quarter finals of the Senior Dublin Championship. Advertisement.

However, the forward preserved, kept demanding to be on the ball, worked his socks off tracking back and then in the latter stages of the game, when it his team needed him the most, he stepped up. Dias was winning everything in the middle of the park, and although Mannion was in his usual fine form, he had to be carried off shortly after Callaghan's goal with an ankle injury. With only a point in it going into the second half, Crokes had all of the ball but couldn't stretch out a big enough lead to stay comfortable and then Con O'Callaghan sparked his team into life with a fine point from play.

Shane Walsh starts as he means to go on with five points for Crokes (Irish Examiner)

Kilmacud booked their place in the Dublin SFC semi-finals.

Costello top scored with 1-3 for Whitehall but Na Fianna largely set the tempo throughout with Conor McHugh palming to the net in the 24th minute. Costello's goal tied the game up at 1-9 apiece but Na Fianna's response was impressive - three points in a row to regain the lead and they didn't relinquish it this time. Cooper walked to the line in the 50th minute of the contest when he was booked for a foul on Eoghan O'Donnell which resulted in a penalty that Cormac Costello converted. He notched back to back points late in the first-half to nudge Crokes 0-8 to 0-7 ahead at the interval but it was a tense encounter with the sides level four times in the opening half. Bad news for Crokes was the apparent ankle injury sustained by Paul Mannion, forcing the three-time All-Star and former Dublin forward to limp off in the 47th minute. Footballer of the Year nominee Shane Walsh struck five points on his full debut for Kilmacud Crokes as the Dublin SFC title holders returned to the last four of the championship.

Kilmacud Crokes hopeful Paul Mannion injury is not serious after ... (The Irish Times)

Reigning Dublin champions were made work for victory as three of the best forwards in Ireland were on show.

Cormac Costello converted the spot kick to level the game at 1-9 apiece, but Na Fianna pushed on to win by a single point. Niall O’Callaghan’s 46th minute goal edged Cuala 1-8 to 0-10 ahead, and it appeared to be a key moment in the game because Mannion’s injury occurred at the same time. We’ll get the scan and know more then, it’s a good sign the pain has eased a bit already.”
