Kelly wary of Dublin backlash

ALMOST five months have passed but the memories stand out vividly as ever for Mairead Kelly.

Two points down to Dublin in the Ladies Football All-Ireland final and, with just eight minutes left, Cork were in danger of relinquishing their title and a once-in-a-lifetime shot at a five-in-a-row.

Even manager Eamon Ryan admitted later he thought their goose was cooked. But Cork found a way to finish first, like they always do, and Kelly was there front and centre in the late charge.
