Conor McKenna is happy to explain the large bruise on his right bicep. It came courtesy of that collision with Michael Murphy last Sunday week. “Ah, I can feel it,” he says pointing to the mark on the Zoom call. “It was good, good to be a bit of a hit.”
The Tyrone man has a smile on his face. Three goals in two games since returning to inter-county football means he has ever reason to be cheerful. And the chance to rut with Murphy in Ballybofey again this Sunday with so much more on the line is appetising.
