Comeback kings pile misery on Monaghan

Another rousing finish, another league win. For all the new faces, both inside the whitewash and patrolling the sideline, Kerry have made a fine habit this spring of finding an extra gear at the tail end of tight encounters. They’ve almost become predictable in the manner in which they’re outsprinting teams to the tape. As was the case away to Cavan in Round Two, Kerry found themselves trailing in the slipstream of their opponents for much of yesterday’s contest, a game where throw-in was delayed by 10 minutes as the heavy snowfall held up the Monaghan team bus travelling to Killarney from their Limerick base.
