O’Grady puts friendship on ice for final

MID KERRY forward Gavan O’Grady is putting college friendships on ice for Sunday’s Kerry senior football decider.

O’Grady puts  friendship  on ice for final

Less than two weeks ago, O’Grady and two of the Dr Crokes footballers he will face in the Kerry final at Fitzgerald Stadium, Killarney — Daithí Casey and Johnny Buckley — were all pulling in the same direction as they starred in UCC’s Cork SFC triumph over Castlehaven. But the trio are in opposite corners this Sunday.

“We will have to put friendships aside for the day. It’s been a great few weeks and it would be perfect now to top it off on Sunday with a Mid Kerry win. But Daithí and Johnny will be thinking the same thing. You try and learn a few things when you are training with them with UCC but there will be no love lost the next day, we’ll be tearing into each other.”
