Tralee aim to impress in Kerry audition

WAYNE QUILLINAN takes his IT Tralee players into McGrath Cup action tomorrow afternoon, fully aware that they have an array of priorities.

On one hand, they are limbering up for the defence of their Trench Cup title next month, and progress through the Munster provincial competition would ensure January provided a series of ideal tests. On the other hand, the presence of Kerry in the opposition corner will focus plenty of minds in the IT Tralee squad, as they seek to produce an impressive audition in front of the watching Jack O’Connor.

“Absolutely, it’s a massive chance for some of the lads,” admits Quillinan.
