Kerry name unchanged side for final
Pre-match favourites Kerry are set to field an unchanged team when they take on Dublin in Sunday's All-Ireland SFC final at Croke Park (throw-in 3.30pm).
Experienced manager Jack O'Connor, who named the team after training tonight, has given a vote of confidence to the side that overcame Mayo at the semi-final stage.
Former Footballer of the Year Paul Galvin misses out on a starting place despite scoring two points as a substitute against the Connacht champions.
Eoin Brosnan, who went over on his ankle at training last Friday, is winning his fitness battle. He has been pencilled in to start at centre-back, having undergone cryotherapy treatment in Ennis.
Galvin could yet have an impact off the bench. He is listed among the Kerry substitutes along with midfielder Seamus Scanlon, who has recovered in time from surgery on a benign cyst on his neck.
This is the first Kerry v Dublin All-Ireland final since 1985. The Kingdom are hoping to lift the Sam Maguire Cup for the 37th time while Dublin, who last won the crown in 1995, are bidding for their 23rd success.
KERRY (SFC v Dublin): Brendan Kealy; Killian Young, Marc Ó Sé, Tom O'Sullivan; Tomas Ó Sé, Eoin Brosnan, Aidan O'Mahony; Anthony Maher, Bryan Sheehan; Darran O'Sullivan, Declan O'Sullivan, Donnchadh Walsh; Colm Cooper (capt), Kieran Donaghy, Kieran O'Leary.
Substitutes: Tomas Mac a'tSaoir, Daniel Bohane, Paul Galvin, Shane Enright, James O'Donoghue, Barry John Keane, Padraig Reidy, Peter Crowley, Tommy Griffin, Johnny Buckley, Brian McGuire, Seamus Scanlon, Niall O'Mahony, Daithí Ó Geibheannaigh, Adrian O'Connell, Daithí Casey.
