The pair, both unemployed, were granted legal aid.
Two men allegedly caught "red-handed" during a seizure of €2.4 million worth of cannabis in Dublin have been remanded in custody with consent to bail.
Detectives "staged an interception" as 15 kilos of cannabis was moved from one car to another, a bail hearing was told.
A follow-up search resulted in a seizure of a further 105 kilos of the drug, Dublin District Court heard today.
Edward Farrell, a 48 year old father of five, of Castlefield Way, Knocklyon, Dublin 16, was charged with possessing cannabis for sale or supply at his home address.
A smaller portion of the seizure worth 300,000 euro at the house of his co-accused, father of five 40 year old Kevin Murphy, of Mountain Park, Tallaght, Dublin, on Sunday.
Kevin Murphy is accused of possession of cannabis for sale or supply at his home.
Officers observed them transporting three black bin liners, which Gardaí discovered contained cannabis, before searching Mr Farrell's home and discovering a further quantity of drugs, meaning the entire haul was worth 2.4 million euro.
Gardai objected to bail, citing the seriousness of the case and flight risk fears.
The pair, both unemployed, were granted legal aid. They have yet to indicate how they will plead.
They were remanded in custody with consent to bail and will face their next hearings at Cloverhill District Court later this month.
