New skipper Donaghy back in Kerry team for Dublin showdown

New Kerry captain Kieran Donaghy will make his first competitive start of the year in Sunday’s Allianz Football League Division 1 clash with Dublin in Fitzgerald Stadium (2pm).

Austin Stacks’ run to the All-Ireland Club SFC semi-final has precluded Donaghy’s involvement until now, but following their defeat to Derry’s Slaughtneil a fortnight ago he is included at full-forward.

Barry John Keane is the player to make way for Donaghy. The other change since the win over Derry in the last round sees Anthony Maher come in for Tommy Walsh at midfield alongside David Moran.
