Donegal’s tactical innovation, Clifford’s quiet day, and a frustrating Division 2 finish

Cathal Mullaney is joined by Éamonn Fitzmaurice and Rory O'Neill to
sort through the weekend's Allianz Football League finals. 

Unsurprisingly there were two somewhat disappointed men in Éamonn
and Rory, with both Kerry and Cork missing out in their
respective finals, but as will be revealed, in very different
ways.  


Éamonn explained that Kerry's 13-point loss to Donegal will not
have much bearing on the county's championship season. He also
reflects that the manner of the defeat may sting but there will
be no panic in the Kingdom over the coming weeks. 


The panel considered the differences in Donegal's play compared
to last year's All-Ireland final, and the ex-All-Ireland winning
manager is relishing the "tactical innovation" to come in the
championship, given the glimpses show by the Tír Chonaill men on
Sunday. 


Rory calls on Éamonn's FRC knowledge to discuss the refereeing of
tackling and the hooter issues he saw in Cork v Meath, where he
felt there was an unsatisfactory finish to the Division 2
clash. 



Joe Murphy’s remarks about keeping his coaching and backroom
team local were noted, and Éamonn added that people will now be
sitting up and taking notice after the Barrowsiders claimed
their first League title since 1971.
