Both camps announced via Twitter last night that they’ll be revealing their respective teams for Sunday’s NFL Division One clash later on this evening. We tend to go with ours around the 9pm mark and the Kerry lads have said they’ll be releasing their team details at 8pm. Hogan Stand reported yesterday that Marc Ó Sé is a doubt for them, as he was the recipient of one of the many punches doled out last Sunday in Tralee, a belt that left the veteran defender with a broken nose.
If you’re looking for some reading ahead of those team announcements, there’s a good in-depth piece by Christy O’Connor about us in today’s Irish Independent – here. There was also a piece, which I’ve only now seen, from yesterday’s Irish Examiner featuring Lee Keegan, which is worth a quick read. There’s also a preview of Sunday’s game on the GAA website – here.
If it’s aural stimulation you want, then look no further than the Mayo Advertiser podcast, featuring Colm Gannon and John Casey.
Was just about to post the Christy O’Connor piece Willie Joe, but you beat me to it – on the ball as usual!
It’ s very good -bears out (if I may say so!) what I was saying about Robbie and the work they are doing on kickouts
