Monaghan aiming high against Kerry despite ultra-slim squad numbers

Their boss ‘Banty’ McEnaney has effectively worked off a core of just 20 players so far this League campaign, writes Paul Keane.

When David Kirk came on for Monaghan against Donegal in Round 5 of the Allianz League, he became just the 23rd player to feature for the Farney in the campaign.

Andrew Woods and Colin Walshe have only three substitute appearances between them also, meaning boss ‘Banty’ McEnaney has effectively worked off an ultra-slim core of just 20 players so far.
