Aye it's a fair old trek alright. I think I read somewhere recently that a new flight is to start operating between Donegal and Kerry soon. That would be great! I'm not sure how feasible it is long term business wise. But for future matches against yourselves in the coming years it will be good!

Ya that would be excellent it would turn an 8 hour journey into a half an hour journey and the Kerry supporters club would fill two planes on their own :-) Ye had a lovely bar-b-Q on for the supporters last year as well fair play to ye although with all the smoke drifting across the stand it looked very like the San siro :-) KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 23/01/2018 14:31:00 2070107 Link 0 |

Yeah it was a great day last year. I remember it was baltic that morning with a lot of fog but it turned into a peach of a day afterwards in time for the throw-in. That was about as good as it got for us. Your inside forward line cleaned us out of it. Hopefully it'll be a bit tighter this weekend.

Ya we had the best of the first half but ye came back at us strongly in the second half and it looked dodgy for a while.

Where did you read that team? Or is it the team you think will start? I read a completely different team to that

I think Donegal will win. Donegal have new manager and some competitive games already this season. McBrearty is playing well. Rockies (Cork) - Posts: 947 - 27/01/2018 01:51:53 2070974 Link 0 |

Looking forward to seeing what this young and exciting Kerry side can do on Sunday, if they can survive and thrive at this level they will go a long way to rectifying some of the big issues which have come to light in the Championship over the past couple of seasons, namely goalkeeper, fullback and half-forward line.

Big year last year for him despite being on a losing Donegal team. Similar 2 years ago. He is a mighty player, but is prone to injury in the winter/spring. I hope that he can stay out of trouble this year. We should keep him and Murphy in around the box. I think that we have options now all of a sudden out the pitch especially with young Neville Mullins coming into the frame. Possibly exciting times.

Difficult game to call with both teams not at full strength. Donegal have played well in the McKenna cup and have been trying to play a bit more direct so hopefully that will reap some rewards down the line. Nathan Mullins has been a great addition and Paddy McBrearty is flying. We probably have more work done than Kerry at this stage due to the McKenna cup so hoping we migt have the edge.

Ha .love that line shock horror,foot passing to the fore.yea they might be conceding a bit more but there scoring more and winning and thats what makes it more entertaining for us all..hope 2018 is the year when defensive teams mix it up and have a proper go..would love to see donegal throw off the shackles and kick pass and attack like men possesed would be great for the game..league is the ideal time to try it out..

I know we lost the game but gotta say that I am pleased. We played most of the game with 14 players. Putting up good scores. Competing to the end. Yeah we were a bit unlucky in the end but that's life. Most of the team are young and the new Donegal. I feel that we can build on this and I would be happy to concede 2 18 if it means we are going to have a proper go. We will see. Donegalman (None) - Posts: 3830 - 28/01/2018 15:38:53 2071338 Link 0 |
