'The Killarney and Kerry people don't tend to be too bad. It's people from other counties more so who want to meet you. It's great to be able to meet the kids'

Q: How does it feel to be both the Footballer of the Year and an All-Ireland champion?

A: It's very satisfying. The All-Ireland is the big prize you set out to win at the start of the year. But when you get nominated for something like the Footballer of the Year, it's nice to go on and win it. It's nice to get the recognition from your fellow players too which adds an awful lot to it.
