It's a long way to Kilkenny. It's a long way to go. 

Dublin's footballers are set to leave the capital next summer and will play either Wicklow or Laois in Nowlan Park, Kilkenny in the Leinster Championship quarter final. 

Kilkenny's Richie Hogan took to Twitter last night, to "advise" the Dublin trio of Footballer of the Year Jack McCaffrey, Bernard Brogan and Philly McMahon on how to reach the Kilkenny venue. 

We can probably expect more of these shenanigans towards the Dublin footballers and their fans in the build up to the game next June. 

@bernardbrogan @jackmcc93 @PhillyMcMahon Just head down the M9, take exit for KK! No traffic lights, just give way to cows crossin👍🏻 #npark

@PhillyMcMahon @jackmcc93 @richiehogan8 @bernardbrogan Jaysus Philly, last thing you need is to be adding weapons to your arsenal 🙈
