Ó Sé: Closed sessions right call

Tomás Ó Sé is fully behind his manager Eamonn Fitzmaurice’s decision to hold some Kerry training sessions behind closed doors after it was discovered the formation of championship teams were being leaked to the media.

Even now, it has been suggested in recent days Colm Cooper will be stationed on the half-forward line against Tipperary in Fitzgerald Stadium on Sunday. Fitzmaurice wrote an open letter to supporters on the official Kerry website last week outlining his reasons why he needs to be secretive about some training sessions.

Ó Sé would understand if genuine Kerry supporters are put out by the decision but argues that it had to happen, for the team’s sake.
