Brennan has no concerns over ‘dodgy’ full-backs

He likes to insulate himself from the media approaching big games, but if Ger Brennan scanned this week’s papers he would see plenty of critical commentary on Dublin’s defence.

Most of it has been directed at the line behind the experienced centre-back, specifically the two corner-backs. Jimmy Keaveney, a clubmate of Brennan’s at St Vincent’s,described the pair as “a wee bit dodgy”.

Another Vinnies man, Mickey Whelan — Brennan’s coach when Dublin won the All-Ireland two years ago, predicted that Kerry will target those two corner-backs on Sunday.
