Ambrose O'Donovan interview: 'The one thing about Kerry people and football is there is no two of us going to agree afterwards'
S Ambrose O'Donovan interview: 'The one thing about Kerry people and football is there is no two of us going to agree afterwards'
A precocious underage talent, a three-time All-Ireland winner with Kerry, and captain of their triumph in the GAA's centenary year. So why is Ambrose O'Donovan such a surprise hit with local radio listeners - if not Tyrone supporters?

Brian O'Driscoll tackled by Enda Smith and David Murray 24/6/2023
Tony Leen: Two steps forward means Cork bound into Croke Park
If manager John Cleary finishes this campaign by leading the natives beyond the scepticism, he will have moved the perennial Cork football debate over to the plus column

Sean Powter fouls Paul Geaney to concede a penalty 3/6/2023
Tony Leen: Kerry still haven’t found what they’re looking for
Simple 20m kick passes to open players were eschewed for the safer option, with no one wanting to make the half-mistake or offer the turnover that could send Kerry down a championship cul-de-sac

East Kerry v Mid Kerry - Kerry County Senior Football Championship Final
Tony Leen: For Fossa's finest, there's one local peak still to scale
At 23, it is unfathomable to consider what David Clifford might do over the next few years. He is a father now, settled into part-time teaching at the Sem in Killarney, and sage enough to keep most hawkers at arm’s length.

Dublin v Kerry - GAA Football All-Ireland Senior Championship Semi-Final
Tony Leen: Kerry survive the ultimate test of the ticker
That Kerry outlasted their greatest rivals, surviving a late tempest that saw them take on water fore and aft, is easily the most significant element of their win over the Big Blue

Damien Comer clashes with a member of the Armagh panel 26/6/2022
Tony Leen: Trouble ahead but that won’t matter for Galway
There may be trouble ahead for some of Armagh’s extended group when Croke Park begins the review, but that will matter less to Galway now

Tyrone v Kerry - Electric Ireland GAA Football All-Ireland Minor Championship Quarter-Final
Tony Leen: Who in the GAA's high towers and low fields is exercised enough to stoke football's big conversation?
You will read next to nothing new here. To all intents and purposes, Gaelic football’s risk for reward has been flushed down the pooper

Donegal v Armagh - GAA Football All-Ireland Senior Championship Round 2
The Last Eight: Kerry have the All-Ireland quarter-final they need - even if it's mined with trouble
Monday's quarter-final draw has delivered the sort of lop-sided draw that will have Galway, Armagh, Derry and Clare salivating at the very real chance of a road to the All-Ireland final.

Brian Hayes celebrates scoring goal 1/6/2022

Spike O'Sullivan 12/11/2014
'Spike' O'Sullivan: I'm nearly there now. I’m almost at the pinnacle
