Quality not quantity got us our second title, says elated Harte

HIS team may have won but Mickey Harte looked like he’d aged 20 years as he made his way to the Kerry dressing room to commiserate with the beaten finalists.

The Tyrone manager had one arm draped around an equally drained looking Brian Dooher for some sort of support and, after the season they’ve just had, their weariness is easy to understand.

Ten games they played to get their hands on the Sam Maguire for a second time, a marathon compared to the sprints that won some of the titles down the years before things like back doors beefed up the championship.
