The Madness of Football, Episode 9: Dublin take the game to a new level
•
In the penultimate episode of the series, we reach the 2017 All-Ireland semi-final in which Dublin demolished Tyrone in a statement win.
What does the performance tell us about the game's evolution and were this Dublin team the greatest to ever do it?
James Horan, Paul Rouse and Maurice Brosnan revisit the landmark display, with input from Colm Kavanagh who saw his Red Hand defence crumble around him at Croke Park.
This is Episode 9 in a 10-part series which was initially produced for Irish Examiner subscribers earlier this year, in which we explore the development of Gaelic football over the decades.
