Brogan explains how Gavin became 'obsessed' with breaking down blanket defences after losing to Donegal in 2014, and discusses whether Diarmuid Connolly should get back in the Dublin team to take on Tyrone.For more: http://www.independent.ie/podcasts/the-throw-in/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
