Kingdom will ease Cooper back into action

COLM COOPER, expected home from Chicago this week, will join the Kerry panel ‘straight away’ according to manager Pat O’Shea.

However, it may be some time before the All Star is in a position to make a return to action with the All-Ireland champions.

“Because he has been away from training and competitive games for so long, easing him back will be the right thing to do,’’ he said.
