Eoin Liston: Kerry won't hold back when Tyrone come to town

Even though Clare come to Killarney 14 days later, Liston anticipates a full-blown game in Fitzgerald Stadium against a Tyrone team who are out a week later than Kerry in the Championship

Kerry great Eoin Liston doesn’t expect Peter Keane’s team to hold back against Tyrone on Saturday despite the close proximity of their Munster quarter-final against Clare.

On several occasions, Keane has stressed the importance of avoiding injuries and while he has rotated his forces, nine players have started all three leage games to date — Kieran Fitzgibbon, Brian Ó Beaglaoich, Jason Foley, Paul Murphy, Gavin Crowley, David Moran, Paul Geaney, David and Paudie Clifford.
