O’Connor delight as tactical master stroke works wonders

NORMALLY reluctant to discuss his players individually, jubilant Kerry coach Jack O’Connor heaped praise on a number of individuals following yesterday’s demolition of Galway in the Allianz NFL final at the Gaelic Grounds in Limerick.

“The introduction of Eoin Brosnan and Darren O’Sullivan to our forward line worked wonders for us in the second half,” said O’Connor.

“However, the contribution of Colm Cooper was exceptional. We are very fortunate in Kerry to have a player of his calibre. He’s a great bit of stuff. He won a ball for Paul Galvin’s goal that God nor man wouldn’t win and set Paul up for a killer goal.”
