Dublin decision to move from Parnell Park may backfire with Wexford next up in Leinster championship

As Kilkenny and Galway played out an entertaining draw in the Leinster round robin, there was an element of unfinished business to the contest with both sides looking beyond to a potential rematch in the Leinster final.

That was the opinion of Anthony Daly speaking on The Sunday Game as he expects the two sides to feature in the decider following the culmination of the round-robin series.

The top two will contest the final, yet there is still a pathway for the third-placed team who will have the target of reaching an All-Ireland quarter-final where they could meet the beaten finalists in the Munster championship.

Dublin are currently sitting in that top three alongside the group favourites, and they will go a long way to securing post round-robin action should they beat Wexford next weekend.

The two sides meet at Croke Park on Saturday with a 5pm throw-in, however, The Sunday Game panel were astonished with the Dubs' decision to move the game from Parnell Park to Headquarters.

Dublin traditionally play their home hurling games at the Donneycarney venue off Collins Avenue, and it has been seen as a fortress with opposition teams expecting a hostile atmosphere at the intimate venue.

"I can't for the life of me know why they took the game out of Parnell Park," said Joe Canning.

"Me as a player going up to to play Dublin, you don't want to play at Parnell Park against them because it is hostile enough there.

"So I think Wexford will be happy enough with that, getting the likes of Lee Chin back, and pushing up Rory O'Connor even further in the game, instead of having him back the field more.

Who will get the third spot in the Leinster round robin? Are Dublin mad to move their vital match with Wexford from Parnell Park to Croke Park?
