New Mayo free-taker Ryan O'Donoghue admits he put himself forward to take on the responsibility following Cillian O'Connor's injury.

Talisman O'Connor is out for the season with Achilles trouble and O'Donoghue, who only made his Championship debut in 2020, kicked the frees in last weekend's win over Sligo, converting four.
