DIARMUID O’CONNOR RETURNS to the Kerry panel for Sunday’s All-Ireland final against Donegal as Jack O’Connor has named an unchanged side from the semi-final win over Tyrone.
O’Connor has been hit hard by injuries this year, damaging his shoulder in the league against Armagh and suffering a recurrence of that injury in the championship last month against Cavan.
He has been included in the 28-man squad Kerry have announced tonight for the Croke Park clash, but they will have operate with a match-day panel of 26.

The starting fifteen Kerry have named is the same as that which won the semi-final as forward Paul Geaney is named as part of the substitutes.
All-Star winning defender Tom O’Sullivan is not included, after being forced off with a calf injury in their quarter-final victory over Armagh.
