Cooper sensational as Crokes cruise through

COLM COOPER was in sensational form as Dr Crokes eased into the Kerry SFC quarter-finals after Saturday’s facile victory over Kenmare at Templenoe (3-15 to 1-4).

Cooper finished the game with 1-10, the highlight of his tally been an audacious 24th minute goal from a free when he lobbed backtracking goalkeeper Shane O’Sullivan from almost 30 yards.

Earlier in the evening Kieran Donaghy inspired Austin Stacks to the first Kerry SFC shock of the weekend, when they beat a disappointing Feale Rangers side in Listowel (1-13 to 0-14).
