Beggan was a great goalkeeper until he decided he needed to one-up Morgan (who is a liability in my eyes) in this sweeper-keeper-quasi-quarterback malarky.

Beggan was a great goalkeeper until he decided he needed to one-up Morgan (who is a liability in my eyes) in this sweeper-keeper-quasi-quarterback malarky. Best example I can give is , I rarely recall Cluxton coming outside his twenty-one bar one stint in 2009 vs Kerry when he was squeezed up,on. Both these northern ‘gems’ are, like you alluded to .. a liability … Morgan was lobbed by White from forty yards in Killarney, Beggan, although I have not seen, would appear to have been overturned by Seanie resulting in an open goal. Some interesting results, I didn’t expect Kildare to win, I though they might rattle but still, we have to admit recent Dublin results and more so their play and body language is alarming. They have an away test in Omagh next… no favours up there. By the time we play Tyrone in four weeks, Dublin could be consigned to division two and funnily enough, Cork relegated as well…

By all accounts Diarmuid O'Connor outstanding once again. From reports, the final score was kind to Monaghan with Kerry utterly dominant.
It was a pity to see Dylan Casey come off at HT on his first day out. Hope he gets more chances.

Seanie chipping Beggan for third goal, quality. We started the second half very fast Clifford 2-1, the one coming from throw in. Morley was very good today, definitely better in the half line. Solid performance just got a bit sloppy at the end giving penalty away

A bloody cold day up in Iniskeen but a good win to warm the heart in the way home. We played a large amount of the game in 2nd/3rd gear as we never really needed anything extra against a fairly poor Monaghan team.
Diarmuid o Connor, as has been mentioned already, was excellent and the team in general did quite well all around but I thought Monaghan were very poor in almost all facets of the game.
Foley did well on McManus but a 34 year old McManus looks well past his best. They had nothin really in the forward line and the scores at the end really flattered them as Kerry were 15 points better.
One thing that I feel the need to comment on as it’s something that I noticed against Dublin, very much against Donegal and very much again today is the amount of off the ball ‘attention’ being given to Seanie o Shea is getting out of hand

This 'sweeper-keeper-quasi-quarterback malarky' as Kot terms it had Donegal's marksman Paddy McBrearty literally in the goals with Morgan in Ballybofey Sat night, only for FB Hampsey to join 'em and 'relieve' Morgan, and who at times played in the Half back line. There was times when there was nobody in the Tyrone half and you'd wonder how this will play out, moreover with how King Clux played his position. Will be nice to see how Beggan got caught out tonight, ah always nice to opponents getting caught out and we goaling.
If Monaghan had the choice again would they go for Clones or would more open play be worse for them?
Great to see young Ballydonoghoor Jason blank out the great McManus and I wonder was that key to buckling Monaghan or was it because Monaghan were dying anyway - over to those who trod on Stoney grey soil on Sunday.
And not kicking the Farneys when they are down but they are terrors for 'off the ball attention' and Seanie O'Shea wasn't the first, 2019 in Clones on David was disgraceful, offender would be in jail if he did what he was doing on the street.
BTW any signs of Donie Buckley's tuition in their defense?
PS - Both guarded the D all day, maybe the story of the game.

Another good day out for the kerry management , continuing to learn and improve, we all expected a bit more from Monaghan today , but our boys executed well, Jack mccaron was a loss upfront for Monaghan. Well done kerry, looking forward to Saturday night in Tralee when Mayo arrive.

Serious performance from Kerry today by all accounts. It’s great to see them putting Monaghan away so clinically. Really sets it up for Austin Stack Park next Saturday week for the 2 form teams in the country. Was in Newbridge today and the outpouring of emotion after Kildare beat Dublin for the first time in a long time had to be seen to be believed. Looking forward to reading the reports from those at the game.

Firstly what a great ground Inniskeen is my 3rd visit and its great.
Got the last seat in the stand and had the pleasure of sitting beside a very knowledgeable local man who's heavily involved in coach and he said we'd win by +6 as Monaghan were missing a few particularly McCarron.
Monaghans FF line was arguably as bad as we've faced so the result should be kept in that context.
The big thing for me is you can see Paddy Tallys influence all over that team. The way we protected the D was brilliant.
My stand out players were Morely and OConnor both excellent.
Felt for Casey he was doing a fine job. Hope he gets more time.

Listening to reports of today and on seeing Donegal and Dublin in the flesh, I expected more from all three. I expected a stiffer challenge from Donegal and more so Monaghan in their home ground.
Is it a case of these not living up to the bill, or is it more so that our defense and midfield are stifling the life out of oppositions forward lines?
As one poster said above, key issues are being resolved, Morley ha solidified our centre axis and other issues appear to be ironed out by a more solidified defensive system.
Spillane has really impressed me to date, going on Timmy and Ambrose’s opinion, they felt that he was being half hard done by and removed too early today, can someone above in Monaghan enlighten us in this regard please.

As I said above, Donegal feared burning fuel against us would render them weary for last nights game so I'd ignore last weeks encounter 100% from any meaningful analysis, and it isn't that I was told this, in fact it is fairly obvious, what with Ulster Championship fast approaching.

After a tough 20 minutes where Monaghan could have had another couple of points on the board, kerry found their stride and won the game at a canter. I thought Paudie was excellent when it was a match and was a constant outball and threat. Monaghan had little upfront and McManus is probably at the end of his career.
Monaghan also made an amount of unforced and sloppy errors where literally they were turning the ball over without a Kerry player making contact. Pretty much everyone did well today. Moynihan and Spillane were quietish but still did well. Casey had a fine game also and was subbed I suspect due to the yellow he picked up.
Best for Kerry were Morley, O Connor and Paudie.

I thought Adrian did well too, fairly sure he gave a call to the sideline just before he came off. That’s what someone near me in the crowd said as it would be very odd to make a sub 5 mins into the second half in a team playing well. So I think he may have gotten a knock but yeah I fully agree that he put in a good and essential shift today

Thanks Kerrybhoy and CiarraiMick.
With regard to cameras, the six one news showed. Clifford’s first and Seanie Shea’s cheeky lob on Beggan, so yes cameras were there. I envisage there will be extended highlights on League Sunday.

Fair play to everyone who travelled. Anyone notice if there were any cameras there? I hope there was. In the first half Kerry could have punished Monaghan on Beggan's walkabout tour but Jack Barry didn't notice him off the line to play a direct ball in to the forward line quickly and another time Neilan gave Beggan keeper's protection on the 21 metre line for a catch he messed up. Perhaps for the best as Monaghan could have used half-time to course correct. Monaghan were best when they played quick direct ball and were rightly rewarded with scores. Their problem was it was rare. Beggan's QB attacks were slow and laboured allowing Kerry more than enough time to reset defence. I can't imaging seeing Kerry playing Monaghan next year in the league. My main issue relates to Kerry tackling. Too much lazy high tackles that deserved yellow. They need to work on their tackling technique. Diarmuid O'Connor's first 10 seconds of the second half laid down the marker of how the second half would go. The final score flattered Monaghan.

Highlights just on ... If that's what they give penalties for nowadays, I won't consider that a blot on Kerry's defensive record this season.

I dont blame Neilan for the penalty. Watch the umpire on Ryan's right nodding his head when the penalty is given. Maybe his umpire needs the rules explained to him.

I don't mind Neilan normally but today he was too fussy at times. He blewfor frees many times when letting the team have the advantage would have been better and more advantageous. Yeah it was nt a penalty. I thought the ref had a very poor day. We got some very soft frees in that FH

As my wife said while watching the highlights tonight we're very poor with penalties both the taking of and the saving.
Diarmuid Murphy saved a penalty against Sligo in the qualifiers in 09 and we had to wait 10 year for our next penalty save which was shane Ryan against Mayo in the super 8s in 2019 and nothing since then.
We don't score many penalties since James and Gooch retired.
Do our team practice these I wonder?
