Rathmore make strong statement

It means Crokes cannot represent Kerry in the provincial club series this year, with Rathmore, Legion, and Club champions Dingle the only sides that can do so at this point.
Two opportunistic first-half goals for Rathmore were the key to their success as they punished some very poor Crokes defending on the day. The first goal came in the 7th minute as Rathmore full- forward John Moynihan took advantage of a defensive mix-up between Crokes midfielder Ambrose O’Donovan and goalkeeper Alan Kelly to palm the ball into the net for a 1-2 to 0-1 lead.
