    Bob Mockler was the Dublin Captain on the day. I was at Croke Park yesterday - still very disappointed by the result.

    Don't forget. EDIT Found this about the above photo. Michael Collins addresses the Kilkenny team before the Leinster Final against Dublin, Sept 1921. From left: Paddy Donoghue(Dicksboro), Mattie Power(Dicksboro), Dick Grace(Tullaroan), Michael Joyce(Callan), Martin Egan(Threecastles), Bill Kenny(Lisdowney), Jack Holohan(from Johnstown, played with Tullaroan), Michael Collins and Harry Boland. Collins and Boland(Chairman, Dublin County Board and Sinn Féin TD for Roscommon), though great friends, found themselves on opposite sides in the Civil War which would claim both of their lives within a year.

    Mockler Played for Tipperary in his early career and Dublin later on. Note it was a Seventeen man game then!!!. We have come across Mr Mockler before. Robert "Bob" Mockler (born 1885) was an Irish hurler who played as a midfielder for the Tipperary and Dublin senior teams from 1909 until 1924. Mockler made his first appearance for the Tipperary team during the 1908 championship and was a regular member of the starting seventeen for the next few seasons. He subsequently enjoyed a decade long career with Dublin before retiring from the game after the 1924 championship. During that time he won three All-Ireland medals, five Leinster medals and one Munster medal.[1] Mockler captained Dublin to the All-Ireland title in 1920. Mockler began his club career with Horse and Jockey before later winning six county championship medals with Faughs in Dublin from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Mockler

    DannyM8 Hadn't forgotten, just really liked this one. Saw blurry photo of Bob Mockler somewhere, and I've put a note on who I think he might be in the shot - absolutely willing to be corrected!

    I think that is Bob to the Right of Collins see and

Definitely Cumbria. May be Clement, in clement weather.

    Beaslai himself??
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Suck Diesel I'm not convinced. There are similarities, but Piaras Béaslaí was very distinctive looking...

    The cap badge seems to be a rampant lion on a crossed ribbon.
  • derangedlemur said:
    London Scottish, possibly. Kilt, badge and sporran all seem to match. That may be true for many regiments though.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Is catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000281336 the same guy and is there any more detail in it?
  • derangedlemur said:
