Fair play to Kierans, played better than many here thought they would I suspect. At the same time, they should have won that, considering the penalty miss, the goal chances in the 1st half, the amount of kicks they dropped into the keeper's hands, and the silly mistakes, especially in that 2nd half, such as dropping the ball coming out of defence when not even being tackled.

Nice knee to the balls by Clifford there at the end, how many games will he miss for that?

East Kerry scrape through...

Eddie Horan and Philip O C had a fine game for Kierans.

Paul Walsh will be sick over missing that penalty...

David Clifford will miss the semis now over that brainless lash out in the final minute....

I dont see them edging anything, cant see St Kierans causing too much trouble. They're 1/10 in the bookies. Not sure that South Kerry team are up to much either. I'd go a handy win for EK by 6 plus.

Kierans giving a good showing here - although P Clifford just burys a goal as I type...

St Brendans were impressive earlier, nice to see Jack Barry in full flow.

St. Kieran’s looked impressive beating South Kerry last Sunday. I think they can give East Kerry a good game but can still see the champions edge it by 2 or 3 points in the end.

I dont know that id read too much into it, south kerry was poor enough by recent standards, their management made some odd decisions too. I cant see anyone coming within 5 or 6 points of east kerry. Their bench alone is excellent

Jonathan Griffin was the referee on Friday night.

My bad. thought it was the same lad, that makes it even worse. Today's ref was equally as poor if not worse. Not a good look when that's the standard of officiating for senior games that are televised on one weekend.

Pity to see Brendan Griffins nightmare performance on Friday night didnt affect him getting this game today. Hopefully he doesnt make as many bad decisions in this game.

Strand Road will be asking themselves all winter why they didn't go more direct into Tommy, was it one ball that was played into him in the second half

Huge improvement form the last time I saw Legion playing against the Stacks

Poor_old_gill

Tommy offered more or less nothing there today

dobman88

Legion ground that one out. Agree on number 4, he did a top job on James, not an easy man to mark. Easy to wind up evidently and he was lucky not to walk after falling for O Donoghues antics.

Think Rahillys looked a bit lost at times going forward but Podge O Connor had a good game sweeping for Legion. A nice afternoons entertainment all the same with the Wexford final on TG4 just before that game on RTE

Newtown90

Coffey was very sticky on James O D all day but should have walked for that strike.

Far from a classic.

David Moran was very quiet, you'd wonder what fitness levels are like.

Great to see some Kerry football all the same!

dobman88

Youd wonder what Griffin is looking at there to miss that punch and he right beside it. Red all day long for the Rahillys man.

Poor_old_gill

You’d know Stephen stack was a corner back anyway!

Kerry_cow clearly fishing....

Caught some of the Dingle game last night, did not expect that result. Such a pity there was no crowd there to see it.

Hoping the game on RTE today is as exciting as Friday nights game.

it's a recipe for disaster ,
wait and see .

like schools reopening .

if they add 1 death to the tally it is a shame on them .

we have to have collective responsibility .

Everything wud have to stop then. Kerry mobbed with tourists more dangerous than outdoor matches.

Poor_old_gill

Also there is a whole sub forum on boards dedicated to Covid & the restrictions- go there & don’t be derailing this thread

Poor_old_gill

Legion & KOR will be a tight one today.

BJK suspended & Tommy injured while JOD starts for Legion.

I’d have to say legion are favourites due to the above

agree , it's not acceptable to have 40 players in contact sports and then go home and back to the work place , it's not fair on the rest using ppe , to serve you a Mars bar in a shop or travel in a car with your neighbour for both to mask up .
seems crazy that it's so acceptable that these contact sports are allow continue .
it's a world wide life changing pandemic , and people have and are dying .is it consolation to a family who will lose someone because of others behaviour , almost certain some poor misfortune will get covid as a result of laxing .

I think the players of all codes almost think they are immune from reality , superhero stuff.

all imo.

18 times less likely to catch virus outdoors, that's why outdoor sports are allowed

personally I think its seems crazy that up to 40 players can be in close contact with body sweats and spits circulating around , and yet all the masks and limited number that can attend family events or the fact that 50 is the limit to a stadium ,
it just all flies in the face of common sense that the rest of us live by .
just shows the power the GAA hold when it comes to their bank account

What about the FAI and IRFU? How come you don't consider them to have the same power?

Did any of ye see the Stacks sub taking the gumshield from Ronan Shanahan and popping it into his mouth.

Covid Officer might want to have a word about that one.

Didn’t see that! That’s weird at the best of times!

Fantastic result for Templenoe, 1 point winners over Dingle.

St Brendans deservedly continue onto the next round, though their performance was far from convincing.

Jack Barry very quiet after a strong first 15mins.

Ivan Parker took over in the second half and kicked 6 points or so. Too one dimensional to progress much further.

Still championship is all about winning and they should improve the next day.
