The two-year veteran

YOU KNOW you’re getting old when the policemen start looking young. But what about a footballer who’s practically a veteran after just two seasons of senior intercounty action?

Kieran Donaghy seems to have been around forever, but he only came onto the Kerry senior team two years ago. Naturally enough, that milestone is still fresh in his mind.

“I remember the first time I put on a county jersey in a league game, and I was putting pressure on myself, not to mind anybody else,” says Donaghy.
