David Moran: Dublin’s dominance hurts Kerry starlets even more

David Moran admits Dublin’s recent successes against Kerry are more difficult for his younger team-mates to get over than the older generation in the panel.

In losing last September’s All-Ireland final to their old rivals, the current Kingdom crop were handed the unenviable title of becoming the first from the county to lose a third consecutive championship match to Dublin.

The 2014 All-Star isn’t sure if Dublin have become a bogey team, as it was suggested Tyrone were in the 2000s when they beat Kerry in three championship games in a row. But Moran can’t deny there’s a desire to win Saturday week’s Division 1 opener against Jim Gavin’s side in Croke Park.
