Roscommon's Smith wary of manager's native county Kildare

“Yeah, it’s interesting for Davy for sure I suppose an extra bit of spice for him,” said the 28-year-old Enda Smith who produced a man of the match display in their 1-21 to 1-11 win over Sligo last time out.

Experienced Roscommon forward Enda Smith said that while Sunday’s clash with Kildare will have some added spice for their manager Davy Burke against his native county, it’s not going to have any bearing on this crunch All-Ireland group game.

Roscommon head the group on three points with a one-point scoring difference over Dublin, but Sunday’s game in Tullamore will see the winners advance as Kildare seek their first victory in the round robin after surprisingly being held to a draw by Sligo before losing to Dessie Farrell’s men.
