Dick Clerkin and Donnchadh Boyle join Colm Keys on this week’s Throw-In Football Show to look back on Derry’s dramatic shoot-out victory over Dublin in the Division 1 final.

Dick explains why he believes the right team came out as victors, pointing out that Derry dominated possession in a game that was the culmination of years of hard work by an Oak Leaf side who have depth and are great at getting defenders on the scoresheet.

The game was a display of how good Gaelic football can be, so we discuss how this level of drama and quality can become the norm.

Meanwhile, Jim McGuinness is winning trophies again, and Donnchadh outlines their prospects for the future after a few selection calls that raised eyebrows in Donegal after their tight Division 2 final triumph.
