Tyrone may not be able to field a team against Kerry despite semi-final delay

Tyrone GAA chairman Michael Kerr has revealed a request for a two-week deferment of the fixture was turned down by GAA chiefs

Tyrone may not be in a position to field a team for the All-Ireland semi-final against Kerry on the rescheduled date of August 21, it has emerged.

The necessity to adhere to medical guidance around isolation and return to play protocols will prove extremely challenging for Tyrone, with players from the last cohort of Covid cases due to end their isolation just before the clash with the Munster champions.
