The Second Captains Podcast · Ep 3616: How Did Mayo Do It, Better Than The World Cup, Cubs Caps And Curses, Ken Called It - 27/07/26 · 27 Jul 2026 podcast

going against everything they believe in in the game and their style of play if they want it any other way and you know that's what must be really satisfying for them this week Yeah and just to go back to your question at the top of the call or the point you made on the last podcast in relation to did we need this

He was, Lee, he led by example and he never doubted that this would work.

I mean, we all saw the meat game.

How long goes the meat game?

Where they tried this and it just wasn't working for them and they kind of managed to recalibrate a small bit and kind of get back into the game.

But Donoghue never, ever wavered from his belief in that this thing would work.

And crucially, I suppose, from a Kerry viewpoint, like, you know, it demands that you...

That you kick out over the press if you can at all but they were behind the press around the middle toward the end they weren't giving any options either and I remember when Cross McGlynn were in their pomp as a club you'd get a corner back kicking a ball out of defence and at the time it was complete madness but it worked for them.

and you'd wonder you could Kerry should Kerry have done that yesterday but I don't think it would have worked because I don't know who in particular was laying the groundwork for the lads around him can't you imagine playing on either side of him if you're Darrell Byrne or Kobe McDonald saying watch this guy you have to almost match it and you know

I feel sorry in a way for the likes of Paul Murphy, for example, yesterday, who tried manfully to get out and didn't get out a few times.

And he'd be saying, where are the other Kerry lads looking for this ball?

But Donoghue was just relentless, relentless, relentless.

And the build-up to the goal, even.

A couple of jinx that he gave that opened it up.

And he had the right man, David McBride, then.

Massive athleticism, by the way, shown by that man yesterday.

I saw, you know, three or four minutes from the end, he was still going, going, going.

Huge levels of athleticism.

It's just Kerry, it's just good.

Exactly.
