It's been an incredible week for the Dubs. Let's take a look back at some of the best moments from their All Ireland Final win last Saturday.

On Friday, we celebrated #TheToughest of GAA fans by putting two true blues through a quiz like no other live last Friday on Dublin Talks GAA for the final pair of match tickets to Saturday's game against Mayo at Croke Park. 

But with a twist...

Watch as we bring two die hard Dubs fans on an emotional rollercoaster.

Totes emosh!

Coppers was dressed for the occasion on Friday night. 

The big day finally arrived. Check out the 98FM Thunders at Croker. 

The calm before the storm. 

Our sports reporter Darren Cleary was based in the Hill and caught all of the atmosphere on camera. 

Things got tense during the match. 

But Dublin did it! The blues became back to back All Ireland champions after beating Mayo by a point. 

So cute!

The celebrations were announced shortly after. 

The curtains closed on Croke Park and the celebrations moved on to Coppers.

It's was an incredible homecoming for the boys in blue in Smithfield on Sunday. 

What a weekend!

But that wasn't all. The week of celebrations continued.

Eleven Dublin footballers have been nominated for the GAA/GPA All Stars this year. The Boys in Blue and Mayo dominate the 45-man shortlist.

For Dublin, goalkeeper Stephen Cluxton is in the running to win his sixth All-Star. Defenders Jonny Cooper, Philly McMahon, Cian O’Sullivan, John Small and James McCarthy are also nominated.

Brian Fenton is Dublin’s only midfield representative on the shortlist. While forwards Ciaran Kilkenny, Diarmuid Connolly, Dean Rock andKevin McManaman make up Dublin’s representation.
