Ciaran Whelan has retired from playing inter-county football for Dublin, after 14 years of service.
The veteran midfielder's decision comes as no surprise after he had hinted at retirement in the wake of Dublin's 17-point All-Ireland SFC quarter-final thrashing by Kerry in August.
He won six Leinster medals and two All-Stars but never got the opportunity to play in an All-Ireland final.
He revealed that he could no longer give the commitment required for another season at the top level. But he insisted that he retired with no regrets.
Best of luck to him!
