Read that Tousist and Kilgarvan have to declare before tonights meeting who they wish to join, this then to be ratified by board.
EK may have lost Spa, but they have Kilcummin and fairly likely the above mentioned Foley and Sullivan as well as McCarthy and Paul Shea.. it's stronger they're getting.

Hell of a spin from either to cahirciveen.. |

Yes. East Kerry looks very strong. Lots of very good players to draw on. Who is going to be their manager?

It's Jerry Sullivan again - I take it Kilgarvan and Tousist both joined East Kerry.

Still very very strong even without Spa. Hard to see them being beaten yet again this year. Stacks first day out will be a tough challenge but I’d still fully expect an East Kerry win. Dingle especially if Mark O’Connor can play for them could be the strongest challenger. Kierans, Mid Kerry and Brendans best of the other divisional teams but I can’t see any of them being good enough.

With reference to Kilgarvan , Tousist etc going with East Kerry rather than South Kerry and the distances involved there was a time , I think , when Templenoe, Sneem , Kenmare played with South Kerrry. Presumably Tousist and Kilgarvan also. I am fairly sure I saw Mickey Ned and John Egan play with South Kerry.. Of course this maybe purely imaginary on my part. Could somebody clarify.
Talking about Kenmare , while watching the Duhallow /UCC match last Sunday the commentator said Sean O’Shea was unable to play with UCC because he had played with Kenmare earlier in the the day, during the course of which he scored 0-15. Did he really score that much?

Think Kenmare pipped Crokes by a point last year also -
With 13 scores from frees it is probably no coincidence that Crokes lost players to black cards - or am I jumping to an incorrect conclusion. Anybody at the game to give a bit more of the story. Crokes were 6 points up at half time so the turnaround seems spectacular.

Different tines aswell id say lads just turned up for the match in those days. District teams now would have a few more training sessions id guess. |

Templenoe have never played with South Kerry in the county championship. Only with Kenmare District.
Templenoe have for over 30/40 years played in the South Kerry league, but never in the South Kerry Championship. They play underage in South Kerry in league and championship, well they used to but I'm unsure now as lack of numbers means they are joined by various combinations of Sneem/Derryane, Tuosist or Kilgarvan in different age groups and I'm not sure if they are allowed take part with those combinations.

Sneem/Derrynane/Templenoe/Tousist recently formed a rainbow coalition in the South Kerry U15 A final, lost out to St Michael's/Foilmore. |

Stacks made easy work of Templenoe today, anyone at the game? Were Templenoe under strength? If the Rockies are showing this form and ruthlessness, their game with East Kerry might not be as straight forward as people make out.
It’s commonly felt and I agree that the best time to catch a divisional team is round one….

A stale and turgid Kerry squad with several cosy incumbents not putting their hands up for a genuine first 15 challenge, perfectly encapsulated by the displays of Morley, Crowley and Adrian Spillane all of whom looked anything but county standard. Not for the first time in recent years at Connolly park, they were cannon fodder to a vastly superior stacks side for whom Casey, Joe O'Connor and Callaghan excelled. There is no doubt several on the Kerry squad need to be culled and this was proof indeed. |

There is no doubt several on the Kerry squad need to be culled and this was proof indeed. Would you be of the opinion so that Morley and Crowley aren’t among the top 10 or 12 backs in the county? Interesting question. GC has regressed since he came on the scene and as Jack pointed out, the middle 8 is now the key. He is nowhere near good enough to start and as to whether he is worth his place in the squad, a no for me. Awful, aimless kick at death against Tyrone demonstrating his limitations. Also hard to see where he would fit in where Kerry are looking to go, attacking and defending as a unit. Think other players like Dylan Casey for example have passed him out. Morley probably is worth his place in the squad but is limited too as demonstrated in schoolboy error against Dublin when Kilkenny and Con caught him badly eith a simple fist pass over his head following a dummy run for the goal in the league. At his peak now and not getting in the team so curve only going one way. Also, regarding your question, as opposed to "backs" Jack et al may well be looking for guys as equally comfortable with the ball and on the ball as they are at defending and closing down space, for this middle 8. A Spillane a no for squad for what its worth. |

This, with your later comment. is the insight that people that can't get to club games want to see. |

Afternoon K'boy, I'll def take in the Saturday night double header, the clash of East and the Rockies is the tie of the round.
I prob won't get to the second evening but your game with Mid Kerry will be a good clash - has the loss to Kenmare set ye back?
Out of curiosity have you cut ties with HS as well or still tapping in. I've completely severed the cord. Have not logged back is since I left

The Stacks/East Kerry game under lights could be tasty enough.

Have not logged back is since I left Matthew Flaherty could be out for the mid kerry game horse as he got injured late in the game against kenmare, The loss the last day will dent the confidence for sure, we made a few silly mistakes that cost us, I thought Pádraig Ó'Sullivan was tough on us at the end of the game, we deffo deserved extra time but best of luck to kenmare in the final. Ya I'm still tipping away over on the hoganstand bud, I don't feel right about how they ran us out of there it's like theyre trying to thin the heard so il dig the heels in for a while. (hi hermit I even started a kerry hurling thread on the main page 🤪) but it's very bad, they stop putting up posts at 6 pm ish even though they advertise that it's open from 7am to 10 pm, every time I try post about it they don't publish my post. |

It would be great if we had all Kerry supporters on here though hardly any harm if they are also on other forums, in fact probably better - like the players, and apparently now the management team, we supporters also need to thicken the blood with a few commoners! Now here's a timely if slightly off point quote, borrowed from a hurling land man and a knowledgeable one at that, very. ‘If we didn't have our hurling clubs to anchor us, we'd be the one parish.'Funny I'd have said ‘If we didn't have our hurling clubs to divide us, we'd be the one parish.' Maybe a case of what divides us unites us - pure class all the way. Amazing that a few clubs can field a decent county team yet NK can hardly get a few players on the county football team - ah sounds harsh but it's not without a grain of truth! |

Hah, I just had a look on there again for the first time since I left. Seems like a ghost town now and the 6pm cut of time is crazy - obviously its a step by step thing to wind it down entirely though what the purpose of the website is meant to be then God knows. The Dubs probably miss us terribly!!! I guarantee they'll show up here at some stage when they realise all the Kerry posters have moved off over here. Though the moderation seems on the ball here so they'll have a frustrating experience! I really hope a lot of the Co championship games will be streamed or shown on tv. I won't have much of a chance to be down home in Nov. Does anyone know yet what weekend the final is scheduled for, I'd really like to be home for it as I've missed the last two ones with Covid and work commitments. |
