DARCY CREDITS MOVE TO BODEN FOR 'UNLOCKING' HIS TRUE POTENTIAL

- BY PAUL KEANE

GALWAY'S Cein D'Arcy says moving to Ballyboden St Enda's helped "unlock" his very best form.

The 2024 All-Ireland finalist has enjoyed a couple of terrific seasons since switching clubs to the capital.

He made his move to 'Boden in 2023, got back into the Galway team for 2024 and featured in every single game for his county in 2025.

D'Arcy blasted the crucial goal in last month's Dublin SFC final win for 'Boden and lined out again in last weekend's big Leinster club win over Castletown.

Now he and the south Dublin side are just two steps from a third Leinster title ahead of Saturday week's trip to face Tullamore.

Versatile midfielder D'Arcy said: "I always had the qualities as a player. Before coming here, I'd played a couple of years with Galway.

LEVEL

"I played in a number of All-Ireland finals, whether that was underage with Galway or at college level. I always had that rawness to me.
