Lilywhites boss Kieran McGeeney has confirmed that the Moorefield clubman has been training and could be considered for selection.

"Daryl is back doing a bit of training now, doing a couple of bits and pieces. Everybody is sort of getting towards it. They are not there yet but hopefully they will be," explained McGeeney.

When quizzed about whether Flynn would have a starting role for the semi-final tussle, he said that the talented midfielder is certainly pushing hard for a place.

"It's hard to say. You know Daryl yourself and he is not exactly soft. He has it in his head that he'll be right so that's good enough for me. We'll just see what way he goes."

Kildare captain John Doyle injured his hamstring in training last week and sat out last Sunday's challenge match win over Down in Newry.

McGeeney confirmed that there are no other fresh injury concerns, with just those on the long term list currently ruled out for the date with the Dubs.

"We just have our usual long-term injuries, Dermot (Earley), Ken (Donnelly) and Peter Kelly are still there," he added.

The short injury list is certainly a relief for the Lilywhites after they came through a tough encounter with Down last weekend.

They used 31 players over the course of the game which ended in a 1-11 to 0-11 win for McGeeney's men. Nurney clubman Mikey Conway was influential up front, finishing with a 1-02 tally.
