Dublin were becoming known as league specialists as the competition entered its eighth season, partly because the Dublin championship was a winter competition and reached its climax in April and players reached a higher level of fitness than many of their opponents. Dublin defeated Louth, Galway, Kilkenny, Antrim and Down while Wexford defeated All-Ireland champions Cork in their opening game, Clare, Tipperary and Limerick. For the final Dublin had eight of the team that won the league title in 1979 and nine from 1981. Five of the Wexford panel were studying for the Leaving Cert and Marita O'Neill was grand-daughter of Martin O'Neill from Ferns, referee of the 1947 All-Ireland final and former secretary of the Leinster Council of the GAA.
Dublin were set on course for their 11-point victory in the 17th minute when Mary Mernagh sent a speculative shot towards the Wexford goal, goalkeeper Kathleen Tonks misjudged the shot and it dropped into the net. [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Dublin led 1-6 to 0-4 at half time and started with second half with a goal from Joan Gormley. Caroline O'Leary-Farrington collected a rebound from Dublin goalkeeper Yvonne Redmond for a Wexford goal. Joan Gormley and Una Crowley added Dublin goals before the end.
The Junior National League, known since 2006 as Division Two, was won by Dublin’s second team who defeated Westmeath in the final at Cusack Park, Mullingar. Westmeath had cut the Dublin lead to three points ten minutes from the end before succumbing.
