However if Kerry finish in the top 2 then they should have been routed into Munster. This year they would have played one of clare/Waterford in a Munster QF.

Being sent to the line in an All Ireland Final is painful enough without being the victory being tarnished as well. Young guys make mistakes. Kerry were allowed to have Declan O'Sullivan and Gooch lift Sam together, why not have the captain lift the cup with another lad? You could hear all the team calling him to lift the cup at the end, and he looked like he wanted to be anywhere else but there.

This is the future of football in Kerry and if he learns his lesson today it will stand to him in years to come. Next time he's on a yellow he might think about how it felt seeing someone else lift your trophy and act accirdingly.
