And that's all from Phibblestown and Dublin West...
It takes a strong team to bring strong coverage and that's the case across RTE this weekend...
A TV & radio reporter (as Béarla agus as Gaeilge), a count assistant, sound op, camera man from all of us...
Goodbye-for now 👋
One final update... you'll excuse the speed at which @SheilaNaughton1 spoke but as you can hear things are very quickly being shut down here at Phibblestown...
Here's how the numbers and seats worked out in the end.
Well done to Ciaran Manning and all the count staff at Phibblestown Community Centre. Here’s when the full Dublin West count result was officially declared. Táimíd críochnaithe anois.
Roderic O'Gorman has been elected and retains his seat becoming the only Green Party TD heading into the 34th Dáil.
He has beaten Ellen Troy of Aontú on the final count, without reaching the quota.

We're in the home stretch & it looks like O'Gorman may hang on
Final count - John Walsh's (LAB) votes will now be distributed
O'Gorman is on 4350
Troy is on 4547
O'Gorman would have to get approx. 200 more votes from Labour than Troy to win Coppinger will take the 4th seat
We're in the home stretch - heading into the final count with 3 candidates left
John Walsh's (LAB) votes will now be distributed
O'Gorman is on 4350
Troy is on 4547
O'Gorman would have to get approx. 200 more votes from Labour than Troy to win
Coppinger will take the 4th seat
The battle continues
After Count 11 it's Ellen Troy (AON) 4348, Roderic O'Gorman (GP) 3777
It's clear Ruth Coppinger will take the 4th seat with 5211 votes, however, it's unlikely she'll reach the quota
John Walsh of Labour is on 3,299 votes
COUNT 10- Ellen Troy extends lead over Roderic O'Gorman as Sinn Fein's Breda Hanaphy is eliminated
The votes of Tania Doyle were hard to call but saw 343 go to Troy putting her at 4,000 votes compared with Roderic O'Gorman's 3,652 votes.
The battle continues for the GP leader.
An update as we head towards evening ...
Roderic O'Gorman (GP) is trailing Ellen Troy (AON) by 166 votes.
Count 10 is imminent
@SheilaNaughton1@RTERadio1
Ellen Troy of Aontú has overtaken Roderic O'Gorman (GP) for the first time following Count 9.
The distribution of Patrick Quinlan (NP) votes of 1,658 saw 677 go to Troy while O'Gorman got just 23.
Tania Doyle (IND) has been eliminated.
Roderic O'Gorman, says he is likely the Green Party's best chance at having a seat in the 34th Dáil.
He also says he hopes to continue to lead the party through its 'rebuild' following the disappointing result this weekend.

A look into yesterday's hard work at the count centre here (we promise we're not just 'looking busy')

A fantastic asset to the team, documenting a little snippet of what it's like to be around the count centre
