James Kerry’s king in waiting

He is by far and away Division One’s top scorer this year but James O’Donoghue admits he’s still learning his trade.

The 2013 All Star has amassed a spectacular 5-15 in five games this year, 5-10 of it from play. That brings his league total to 7-20 — not bad for a player with just 12 starts in the spring competition.

His latest goal, against Kildare on Sunday, was a perfectly-placed shot to the bottom corner, but the modest Legion man said he was ashamed by his two previous attempts, both which he struck straight at goalkeeper Shane Connolly.
