Meath ace Kelly offers Kerry some painful words of wisdom

MEATH’S ace forward Evan Kelly had some words of wisdom for Kerry in the wake of Sunday’s demolition of Cork in the All-Ireland football semi-final at Croke Park and they were all based on the painful experience of last year’s All-Ireland final against Galway.

“No matter who wins between Dublin and Armagh next Sunday Kerry are going to go into the All-Ireland final as the raging hot favourites and, believe me, that’s the worst possible position that any team could be in,” he said.

“I was talking a few of the lads this morning and it was all a taste of déja vu for me. We were just recalling what it was like last year when we were in the very same boat that Kerry are in now.
