Kerry didn’t raise any green flag here but they worked their way through the gears to get the job done, being efficient when they had to be.

One green flag never enough to sack Kerry in Munster 

Just before half-time in Ennis on Sunday, Dermot Coughlan scythed through the Kerry defence and decided to go for broke, pulling the trigger from distance. Shane Murphy saved the shot and Brian Ó Beaglaoích scored a point off the turnover, which put Kerry ahead by four at the break.
