Michael Verney

because he wanted to train and he trained all winter.

He trained savage and he's played every game with Kerry and he's played very, very well.

Look, and then of course, Jesus, look, I know we shouldn't be talking about it, but we have to talk about it.

Like David Clifford's performance again last week, he had eight shots of goal, eight shots of goal.

He scored one six.

I wrote about it for next Sunday and I was saying, I'm just running out of superlatives to talk about it.

I was looking at just some stats.

You could quote a million stats.

The last five championship games against Cork, he has scored three goals and 32 points.

2.24 from play.

And do you know what?

I'm sorry to say,

if he was playing with Cotless, obviously we could have won it.

He's just unbelievable.

He's just unbelievable.

Anyway, like I said, I just felt it was a performance that was only okay.

I just thought it was a performance that they were half distracted because Donegal coming on over the horizon in two weeks' time, they're distracted by that.

And look, the bottom line is, you could see it, it was lovely to get their hands on the Paddy O'Shea Cup, but Kerry players know goddamn well that unless they deliver Sam at the end of July,

this Munster title counts for a sweet F-all.

But then when the ball is high... I let you in again, but you're right.
