Cian O'Neill off to Kildare. Best of luck to him, but a big loss to Eamon & Co

Gutted.

Massive loss.

Would Donie Buckley come back after the shambles in Mayo?

A lot of people make this mistake. Donie is a coach (trains the skills) but is not a physical trainer/strength and conditioning.

Pat Flanagan & John Sugrue along with many others may be interestd.

Wit O'Neill gone dont forget we are also down a selector.

Quarter final draw

Rathmore V Dr. Crokes

West Kerry V Kenmare District

Killarney Legion V Kerins O'Rahillys

Kilcummin V South Kerry

Boom__Boom

Action from the Crokes Stacks game.

Current odds below - overall hard to look past Crokes and I'm a bit surprised South Kerry are so close to them in the betting ; I'd have had KOR as second most likely now - I'd imagine the opponents in the next round are surely affecting things a fair bit with Legion being far more capable of pulling off an upset than Kilcummin are.

New management for Roscommon, Down, Mayo and Cork.

I know our league form hasn't been great under Eamonn but I can't help but wonder if there might be some betting value in terms of backing Kerry for the league next year.

All the handpassing all the same. The Dublin clubs are at it too, it's an observation, but most of the kicks are shots.

Close game.

It was ever thus. Crokes have been hand passing machines from far back in the mists of ancient times.

I saw a comment on a Stacks article on the42.ie (the website formerly known as thescore.ie) last year before the AI club Semi-final about their fans and their love of a good auld parade: "They're like the Dortmund fans".

Never has one person been so wrong on the internet ever.

End of the road for Strand Road today

Legion won 4-10 to 1-15

South Kerry also won beating Kilcummin 0-14 to 1-8

keane2097

Not the usual bereft feeling after Strand Road are beaten in the Championship. I thought nearly all of our guys played well, and we have a lot of quality. We're short a full back of real presence and toughness but I don't think that's a surprise to anyone. I was also delighted with the attitude we showed, they fought on their backs to stay in touch right to the end and that was fantastic to see.

Legion are a right good team, and James was at the top of his game yesterday. That being said, our tactical approach was suicidal. If we had started with Coffey and a sweeper on him instead of leaving Brosnan on his own with half of Fitzgerald Stadium in front of them until James had made two and missed one I think we probably would have won.

I also thought it was a big mistake bringing Tommy out to midfield as we were doing well there. Con Barrett's runs with the ball from deep caused Legion a lot of problems but he was prevented from doing it by being put inside. Tommy had them under huge pressure in their full back line too and I seriously doubt we would have finished with one goal if he'd been inside throughout.

All in all a disappointing end to a year that didn't turn out too badly, but an opportunity missed I think.

Whatever else happens this year we'll have a new winner
semi final draw is Kenmare V Sth Kerry and Legion V Rathmore
Id fancy Kenmare to pip S Kerry and the second game should be a cracker. Is Crokes dominance over? I wasnt at the game today but keeping tabs on the scoreline, Rathmore seemed to be well ahead from the very start

Not sure about finished, there is a lot of talent still in the Crokes team, I think a change of management would do them no harm - they weren't at the races tactically the last two outings anyway.

Credit to Rathmore today, they were clinical when chances presented themselves and capitalised on Crokes lack of discipline.

Wide open now, any one of the four could do the business, although personally I fancy the winner of the Legion/Rathmore tie to go all the way. Should be a cracker of a match.

I thought Crokes looked very tired today.
Only two from the Crokes who performed today were Daithi Casey and Johnny Buckley. Rathmore will enjoy the win anyway - turning into a bit of a bogey team for Crokes the last while. Would be very surprised if there isn't management changes with the Crokes.

Yeah would have the winners of Legion and Rathmore as favourite for the final. Would fancy Kenmare to edge South Kerry - and find it hard to see South Kerry winning it outright unless they get a lot of luck.
