could be see a north Kerry senior team next year, I cant see Feale or Shannon rangers winning any game in the group stages.
all depends on Austin stacks and Kenmare Shamrocks.
If Kenmare Shamrocks lose Kenmare District will have to be reformed creating an extra team with the 2022 intermediate Winners. Making it 17 teams in the county championship so would be perfect excuse for an North Kerry team to happen.

What's the criteria - I mean it isn't as if it is ask and you shall receive, or is it easy to merge but hard to split ala Dubs? That only some grades merge could get complicated I'd say and which was an argument vs Dubs being split.

Finuge got one of the best crop of players in any clubs history around mid 90s onwards and it lead to a golden era. what was it, 6 senior medalists and host of underage players? that only happens once or twice in a lifetime and its hard to sustai that. that was some Finuge team - Breen the most experienced player, Corridans, Galvins, Fitzmaurices, Trevor McKenna, Cronins, Mike Conway probably missed out on a few, how many NK titles did they win? So many hurlers too in the ranks Lixnaw one week Finuge the next

Finuge had no player on the 35 man panel listed by NK Rangers Minors last night. Not One. Panel mainly made up of Moyvane, Tarbert and Listowel. 2 Feale + 1 Shannon.

Some territorial set up there - Finuge, Lixnaw, Kilflynn Crotta, Senans .. some land mass - then throw in the ball sizes.
Who would Abbeydorney or Causeway big ballers play for?
And that's hardly all but still they appear to handle it well, or else they silence anyone who opens their gob?

Dan Goggin plays with Na Gaeil Brandon Barrett plays with Ardfert.

Such a 'dual land mass' must be one of the most notable given our big ball pedigree.

Which would equal their tally of NKC titles. The standard in NK was higher at that time as well.

Maurice trained St Brendans board to reach a senior football championship final in the early 1990s No doubting hurling was his first love!

Ditto in Kilmoyley, kilmoyley hurling club on the wall having said that good footballers in both , but play for Ardfert, Brandon Barrett and Robert Monohan

Causeway school had decent football teams, lads from Ballyduff, Lixnaw ( finuge), abbeydorney who played football, kilmoyley lads who played football with ardfert, crotta lads who played with senans etc. some lads who played no club football but would play at school

Ballyheigue have dabbled a bit in the football alright but not much really I think they had a somewhat famous result against Brick Rangers in the 90s in a Brendans championship game. Brick Rangers had 3/4 on the Kerry panel that year and ended up losing.

I think Ballyhiegue won a Novice Championship in the early 90's
Alot of Ballyhiegue lads now play underage with Ardfert as do alot of Causeway lads play underage for Ballyduff but only in recent years

It was Ballyduff that won Co Novice in 1991. Some kids from Causeway play underage with Ballyduff and have on and off for decades. A few senior Causeway players have in the past chosen to play with Bduff. Should b interesting NK cship this year.

Bit of talk that some of these fixtures not involving Feale Rangers wull still go ahead.
Ballyduff V Brosna Tarbert v Ballydonoghue Ballylongford v Castleisland Desmonds
Surprised if so, I invisaged that there would be a blanket call off until Feale Rangers race is run.

Tbf there's no reason they couldn't have started it up with the last few weeks by playing any games not involving Feale Rangers teams. Considering North Kerry has the most teams of any divisional championship the sooner they start the better. But then when have they ever done that...
