Kerry confident O’Sullivan will win fitness race

KERRY management are hopeful Darran O’Sullivan’s hamstring strain can be successfully treated in advance of the All-Ireland semi-final against Mayo in three weeks time.

Kerry confident O’Sullivan will win fitness race

Jack O’Connor revealed yesterday there was no immediate news as to the extent of the problem but the senior manager did confirm the player was undergoing cryotherapy in an attempt to speed up the healing process.

A scan this week will confirm the injury but O’Sullivan is hopeful the decision to replace him in the first-half of the All-Ireland quarter-final against Limerick on Sunday before he sustained any further damage will prove wise. The player himself was positive immediately after the game when asked about the seriousness of the situation and reports in the county yesterday claimed there was a tweak but no tear although his availability for the semi-final was still less than certain.
