Cassidy says pressure is on Kerry

Damien Cassidy during his spell as Derry senior football manager
Derry manager Damien Cassidy has said there is "a greater onus" on Kerry to win Sunday's NFL clash at Killarney.
Jack O'Connor's team go into the game pointless after defeats to Dublin and Cork in their first two rounds and will certainly be looking to get their campaign back on track against the side they defeated in the last year's Division One final.
"They have lost their opening two games so certainly it does mean that the stakes are raised," Cassidy told the Irish Daily Mirror.
"They were undefeated this time last year and won the league so I think they always try to do well in the league any time. But it's true that they're in a position where they need to get the points so it puts a greater onus on them."
Cassidy has been boosted by the return of Bradley brothers, Eoin and Paddy, as well as key defender Kevin McGuckin and says his team will be going all-out to collect their second set of points this weekend.
"If we get the two points we'll have put together a very goof performance," he added.
"In Kerry you always have top fight tooth an nail for everything you get."
