Kerry need to step it up for tougher tests

They have some very talented young forwards such as Shane Walsh and the hard working Michael Lundy who took his goal splendidly. And in Flynn and Ó Curraoin they have a midfield pairing that will improve in the coming years, and they more than held their own yesterday — a point I will come back too. Gareth Bradshaw tried hard yesterday too, however the sum of their parts is a “middling” Division Two team.

They have hung on in that sector for the past few years, but, they are a long, long way off the standards of the top Division One sides such as Dublin, Mayo, Donegal or Kerry.
