DISAPPOINTINGLY the entertainment value from this Kerry SFC quarter-final in Fitzgerald Stadium diminished in a second half of contrasting fortunes.

THIS clash of the titans may have failed to deliver on the pre-match hype, but few in Killarney will be complaining after Dr Crokes defeated West Kerry in Saturday’s Kerry SFC quarter-final at Austin Stack Park (1-8 to 0-5).

THE scoreline suggests a tight, gripping clash but that statistic conceals the reality behind yesterday’s Kerry SFC semi-final clash at Austin Stack Park in Tralee.
