Cooper remains in frame for captaincy

COLM COOPER remains in the frame to captain the Kerry senior footballers next season but Dr Crokes officials insist they will wait until December before deciding who to nominate for the position following yesterday’s county final triumph.

The Killarney club once again have the entitlement of selecting who will lead Jack O’Connor’s county squad for the 2012 campaign but Cooper is adamant he has not yet discussed the issue.

“I haven’t really thought about it to be honest,” he said.
