After five years, Tiernan Kelly and Armagh send Kieran Donaghy back south with huge gratitude for a job well done.

The former Kerry star stepped away as coach and selector after the 2025 season, having helped the Ulster outfit end a long wait for Sam Maguire in 2024. He has since joined Jack O’Connor’s backroom team.
