Christy O'Connor: Can Dublin keep Kerry down...or can Kerry finally put an end to the torture?

On Sunday, the madness starts all over again. Dublin are looking for a sixth successive championship win against their southern rivals. Kerry just desperately want the misery to end.

TITANIC BATTLE: Dublin’s Jonny Cooper gets to grips with Kerry’s David Clifford in the 2019 final. Rivals Dublin and Kerry are set for another huge encounter at Croke Park on Sunday as they bid to book a place in this year’s All-Ireland Final.

When Kerry and Dublin met in a league game in Tralee in February 2019, there was a huge row at the final whistle, but the first spark of the blaze was ignited at half-time. One of the Kerry players somehow ended up in the Dublin dressing room and, as he was coming out, some of the Dublin players rattled him against the door.

The bonfire which was lit in the corridor combusted 50 minutes later when heated words were exchanged between two players. All hell broke loose but as the row was breaking up and everyone began dispersing, one of the Dublin players roared: “See youse in September.”
