, Ballinteer St John's, St Vincent's, Na Fianna
, O'Toole's, Erin's Isle, Lucan Sarsfields and St Mary's. The winners of the second round were drawn against the third-round winners; they were separated by two distinct lots meaning the second-round winners were kept apart from third-round winners in the fourth-round draw.

and the tournament favourites Kilmacud Crokes went on to the semi-finals. The quarter finals saw the first round in the competition so far to have had no drawn matches.
A decision on the dates was to be decided pending the results of Plunkett's appeal which was to be heard by the Dublin GAC on 13 October.
The Leinster council had given an extra week for the Dublin GAC
to sort the issues. If the problems were not sorted in time, Dublin would not have a representative in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship
for the 2006/07 season.
former Mayo
player Gary Mullins, who took part in the quarter final clash between the two teams.
St Oliver Plunkett's lost their appeal to the Dublin County Board, therefore the Dublin GAC set the fixture of Na Fianna against St Vincents as originally planned.
St Oliver Plunkett's, however, took their appeal to the Leinster Council
in hope of being re-instated into the Dublin Championship. This further delayed the Dublin Championship and raised the possibility of the championship not being completed in time for Dublin to produce a representative in the Leinster championship
. The Leinster council ruled in favour of the Dublin GAC
and the semi final was slated to proceed on 19 October.
As St Oliver Plunketts lost their appeal to the Leinster Council
, Na Fianna played St Vincent's in the semi final clash as planned. The game was initially scheduled for Friday 27 October 2006 but was cancelled and rescheduled for Monday 30 October to enable Ireland International Rules captain Kieran McGeeney to be available for the first test against Australia at Pearse Stadium
.
, stating that it was not within five days of their game against Lucan Sarsfields
in the quarter final. This had the effect that Kilmacud had breached Rule 116 of the official guide. The GAC met Kilmacud representatives on 17 October to discuss the matter. The meeting of the GAC resulted in Kimacud Crokes being excluded from the Senior Club Football Championship.
UCD offered Kilmacud a replay thus reinstateing Crokes, which would guarantee a Dublin representative in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship.The semi final between the students and the Crokes was slated to take place on Thursday 26 October 2006. Kilmacud Crokes went on to play the game against the Students and were narrowly defeated, giving the Dublin Senior Football Championship its first finalist.
The winners of each semi final went on to the Dublin senior club football championship final. The losing teams were eliminated from the competition and there was no third and fourth place games, therefore a loss would prove to be the respective teams final fixture in the Dublin championship.
Dublin Senior Club Football favourites Kilmacud Crokes crashed out of the Dublin championship to UCD
in a tight game. UCD
went on their first final since 2002. The 2006 final was a repeat of the 2002 final, as Na Fianna
crashed out of the Dublin championship to northside rivals St Vincents. UCD
won the 2002 final against St Vincents
who were seeking to retain their first title since 1984.

in the quarter final. This had the effect that Kilmacud had breached Rule 116 of the official guide. The GAC met Kilmacud representatives on 17 October to discuss the matter. The meeting of the GAC resulted in Kimacud Crokes being excluded from the Senior Club Football Championship.
UCD offered Kilmacud a replay thus reinstateing Crokes, which would guarantee a Dublin representative in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship.The semi final between the students and the Crokes was slated to take place on Thursday 26 October 2006. Kilmacud Crokes went on to play the game against the Students and were narrowly defeated, giving the Dublin Senior Football Championship its first finalist.
The winners of each semi final went on to the Dublin senior club football championship final. The losing teams were eliminated from the competition and there was no third and fourth place games, therefore a loss would prove to be the respective teams final fixture in the Dublin championship.
