If you want a really nice frame maybe get in touch with the Killarney Framer, nice man.

Found this on Twitter - enjoy 😉 Brilliant. Pity, though, it didn't continue for another 10 seconds or so. Finished just as the final whistle was about to blow.

Well Mannion went off injured today and McCaffery hasn't played a club game all year apparently. So would be a bit off if they were to come back.

Anything can happen between now and next season. Why would you announce this now?
To me, it smacks of a Dessie Farrell under pressure and keen to get some positive news out there quick.
I wouldn't be worried about it either way.

It's silly season for the inter county scene, any tripe fills media and newspaper columes.
Regardless of who returns, or shows form.. or even shoots the lights out it will be league division two, sure even any half decent club teams could rattle division two.
Dublin will be winning but undercooked regardless.

So much for Dessie’s talk about rebuilding and giving youth a chance. Maybe Cluxton will be back next.

I wouldn't be worried about it either way. I wrote on here last year when watching the Dublin club championship that most of the best footballers in the championship were not from Dublin, but lads living and working in Dublin. Dessie Farrell has confirmed this today. This is one dreadful vote of NO confidence in the up and coming young Dublin footballers trying to make a breakthrough to the senior team. There could be a nasty enough atmosphere in the dressing room following this.

I wouldn't be worried about it either way. I think there’s a raft of Dublin retirements on the way & this is to soften the blow - doubt if Byrne, Fitzsimons , Cooper, Rock, Scully will be involved next year either by choice or not considered good enough by Dessie - apart from Lee Gannon , there weren’t too many other newcomers who will be happy with their displays this year - are Bugler, O’Dell, Cian Murphy good enough? Is Costello inter county standard? Brian Howard too was disappointing- major changes on the way, division 2 to be their training ground - we have no more to fear than we did this time last year - I would even say less given that we will take great confidence from this year & we are still improving.

Kerry will have more than the Dubs to worry about next year. A rejuvenated Tyrone with an injection of seriously talented young players will surely roar back into contention and who knows what Keven McStay might do with Mayo but it’s fair to assume they’ll be no soft touches. Galway will surely feel they belong at the top table too after this year, so 2023 is looking ultra competitive.

I disagree on your first point. No one is retiring now but it could be one year and then a bunch of them will go.

I was happy with Mannion and McCaffrey off the pitch. Well, happy to think that was down to Dessie Farrell.
I think Dublin will be better for them being there, especially Mannion.

Lads to be fair if Dublin had Con last year we were in serious trouble. Fit Con,Mannion and Jack……Let’s get real they are no Galway serious opposition.

Not really surprised about Mannion coming back but Jack is a different story. He is going back to work in Africa in a month or two so probably won't be back in for League. Hard to jump back in for Championship.
I could see Cooper go but Mc Carthy won't.
Dessie must be concerned about the young blue wave.
Howard was outstanding today for Raheny. Sean Mc Mahon is a big solid unit. Fenton was just back from his travels around Europe and controlled the middle without breaking a sweat. Having said that we were very poor and should have lost by more that 5.

The team I fear the most next year is Mayo, they've a serious management team in place and had alot of big injuries this year.
Dublin will be a force, Tyrone. Galway.
Huge task next yest to retain an all Ireland. Dublin already now only marginally behind us in the betting.

What about Kerry in 2023?
While the monkey is off the back, will the manic hunger be still there.
A bit of new blood will probably be needed.
D.Moran will be a year older and Joe is probably gone for 2023 so midfield looks light. Maybe Graham could be released from corner back duties and go to midfield.
Injuries to DC, SoS and one or two more could capsize the boat of course. Hopefully that wont happen.

ya we need 2 or 3 new players in for sure. looks like we have found 2 going off the county championship but they are 18 and 20 and will require maybe 2-3 years to get up to standard, S & C etc.

I am amused at people here worrying about the potential strength of Dublin and other teams in 2023 , a mere two months after our glorious victory in July. At the expense of being presumptuous , I would advise fellows to savour this year until Christmas at least. To further soothe the nerves of our more anxious brethren I will go further. I have no doubt at all, now with the imperative of winning on the strength of minor success etc off their backs , Kerry will be stronger , more confident and more relaxed in 2023. One caveat as usual: the need to avoid injuries to key players.
So, come along to the Listowel races and enjoy yourself and put a few bob on a horse of your choice. While you are it, put a few bob on Kerry for 2023. It may be the best investment you will make over the next twelve months,

fully agree Veteran BUT that drive within us all, is the reason why Kerry are top of the pile and we are always there or there abouts.
look at Tyrone and how they win and then disappear for example. as Seamus Moynihan once famously said "second best is never good enough down here"

Graham played midfield for SK yesterday. Hard to know what to make of him there - didn't have any great influence tbh but then it didn't look like he was busting a gut either. Jury out at least.

midfield certainly is the key area to work on next year. we were beaten there by Galway and lost our way around middle against Dublin.

Ya, Graham had a good first half but laboured in second, he was ploughing a lone furrow at stages, some of SK tactics were baffling, esp. When chasing the game, big Matthew Sullivan was 8 inches above Sean T but no ball going in to him. That I just couldn't understand. But back to the question, I think Graham is better suited to corner or wing, although the returning Dan Donoghue and Casey may afford us chsnce to experiment. Ex minor Barry O'Mahoney is a rough diamond that may be worth a look at.
