With his now trademark policy of sticking with the tried and trusted, Dublin manager Paul Caffrey has named the same starting 15 for Sunday's Leinster football quarter-final replay with Meath.
Despite strong speculation that Mark Vaughan would come in to assist in the free-taking after the drawn game last Sunday week, the Kilmacud Crokes player is once again kept in reserve.
It was Vaughan's free-taking which helped Dublin past Meath two years ago, but for now he must remain content with a place on the bench, as must his club-mate Ray Cosgrove, their sole substitute in the drawn game.
There were no fresh injury concerns, but Jason Sherlock was once again ruled out for a starting place as he still suffers the effects of a wrist injury, while fellow forward Kevin Bonner is still hampered by a thigh strain. But both have returned to light training and could feature at some stage.
Bernard Brogan, younger brother of Alan, was also rumoured to be in Caffery's options for a starting place in the forward line, but instead the manager has kept faith with Diarmuid Connolly, who had an uneasy debut against Meath the last day.
Sunday's game at Croke Park, which has a 4.15 start, is certain to be an 82,300-sell-out. Dublin's allocation of 20,000 tickets was only half that demanded from clubs, so no tickets will be on sale from Parnell Park.
Meath manager Colm Coyle will name his team at lunchtime today, with his main concern being where to fit in forward Brian Farrell, who missed the drawn game through suspension.
Cian Ward, whose brilliant free-taking as a substitute the last day proved decisive in forcing the replay, is still likely to be kept in reserve.
Elsewhere, Wexford manager Paul Bealin has been boosted by the news that forward Matty Forde will be fit for their quarter-final against Louth, the curtain-raiser at Croke Park.
Forde has been troubled with an ankle problem, forcing him to miss much of the training sessions, while his playing activity was restricted in the club championship and the county side's recent challenge outings. But he is now fully recovered.
But Bealin will be without forward PJ Banville, ruled out with ankle ligament injury received in a club soccer game.
Sligo manager Tommy Breheny is still hopeful former All Star Eamon O'Hara will be fit for their Connacht semi-final against Roscommon on Sunday, with the experienced midfielder still struggling with a groin injury.
In hurling, Limerick full forward Seán O'Connor remains highly doubtful for Saturday's Munster semi-final replay with Limerick. O'Connor was forced to retire with a groin injury in the first half of last Sunday's encounter at the Gaelic Grounds. Limerick also have concerns over centre back Brian Geary.
Tipperary will confirm their team this evening.
