Eamonn Fitzmaurice: ‘There was basically rape and pillage going on’

The Kerry boss revealed one of the factors behind the decision to move Donaghy to midfield this spring was due to the difficulty he has had in winning frees at full-forward. Donaghy certainly looked to have been infringed upon by Cian O’Sullivan in the penalty area in additional time.
Criticising referee Eddie Kinsella, Fitzmaurice said: “In general, Kieran finds it very hard to get frees. It was part of the reason that we decided to play him out the field during the league because it frustrates him, it frustrates us looking in at it and before the ball comes in he gets a lot of treatment.
