DUBLIN star Paul Mannion says his current plan is to commit to the county again next year.
But the 30-year-old says it would be "almost rude" for him to ask about the future intentions of senior colleagues like James McCarthy, Dean Rock, Michael Fitzsimons and Stephen Cluxton.
The Kilmacud Crokes man returned to the Dublin fold this season after a two-year absence to help the county land the All-Ireland title for the first time since 2020.
Mannion delivered a man-of-the-match display in the final with five points. Asked if he is planning on going back in with the county next year, he said: "At the moment, yeah, nothing has changed. I've just got to see how we're going with Crokes, how the body is feeling.
"I'm just really hoping that I can stay injury-free again over the winter and have a long and good club championship.
"And sure there's always been one or two changes at the end of every year. The squad of 30-plus players, it's never been the exact same so I'm sure there will be changes in some respects. But where exactly those come from I don't know."
