Split season is a blessing for Kerry goalkeeper Shane Ryan

Ryan out the field is dominant for his club Rathmore. He kicks scores from play and from frees. His kick passing into the inside line yields 1-2 in the first half alone

Rath Beg’s field is besieged by sideways rain and uprooting wind and for the guts of an hour Kerry goalkeeper Shane Ryan is right in the heart of it. Where else would the Rathmore full forward rather be?

The 2022 All-Star is seeking refuge from the downpour in his east Kerry clubhouse. They’ve just scored a comfortable and crucial victory over Feale Rangers, with a blockbuster final group clash against Kenmare Shamrocks to come. Four points brings his tally to 0-11 in the Kerry SFC so far.
