Honest Tom

Eve-of-All-Ireland final candour? Try Kerry’s brutally honest, if oft-maligned full-back (aren’t they all?), Tom O’Sullivan. He spoke to Tony Leen.

TOM O’SULLIVAN can’t find the interview default setting. It’s pushing on for an hour since we stared down at the dictaphone’s red light and only one comment has been off the record. And for the record, that wasn’t anything.

He should be taking parrots and moons. Anything but. Where do you want to start? Pay for play? (yes), Jack O’Connor? (paranoid), retirement (almost), playing full back (you try it).
