All white on the night

IT WAS a good night at the office for Kildare at Dr Cullen Park as they cruised to the Leinster SFC semi-final with a comfortable dismissal of last year’s All-Ireland semi-finalists Wexford on Saturday.

Kieran McGeeney’s side never really looked in danger of losing, once Alan Smith slotted to the corner of the net in the 10th minute after some good work by blood sub Gary White and the hugely industrious Ronan Sweeney.

All their scores came from play as they continued to build on the promise of a league that saw them averaging more than 16 points a game. With John Doyle limited to one score, it’s clear Kildare is no longer a one-man attacking band.
