Maurice Fitzgerald answers Kerry's call

The name of Maurice Fitzgerald was ratified as Diarmuid Murphy’s replacement as a Kerry senior selector at last night’s County Committee meeting held at IT Tralee.

Patrick O’Sullivan who was chairing his final meeting before handing over to Tim Murphy at next month’s County Convention said that the addition of Maurice Fitzgerald was a massive boost for Kerry football.

“He is a man with huge experience both what he has done on the pitch and what he has done off the pitch with St Mary’s. As a player he was unequalled and commands huge respect countrywide.
