Kerry poor show irks O’Sullivan

Munster boss Gerry O’Sullivan has expressed disappointment at the lack of Kerry footballers available to the province for Sunday’s M Donnelly Interprovincial semi-final against Leinster at Parnell Park.

The Cork selector expects to have no more than two of Jack O’Connor’s panellists on hand in Dublin for the game, while only Tomás Ó Sé and Pádraig Reidy featured when the southern province won the competition on its last outing in 2008.

O’Sullivan said: “For one reason or another they just don’t seem to be interested. It doesn’t surprise me that much but it disappoints me that one of the top counties in the country wouldn’t give it more support. I think the players would like to play but they have a training schedule laid down for this week. Jack is not involved with Munster and he wanted the players so they are not released.”
