Replying To Breffni39:  "Leave JOD alone, the usual anti-Kerry bias on here! Yawn!"
No if it was anti Kerry you'd be weighing in a lot heavier than this.

As woops said it's time for jod to knuckle down and get stuck in if he doesn't want to be known as a one hit wonder.

Replying To KingdomBoy1:  "Ya I'm lucky that I got to see Clifford with his club and district teams and Kerry minors realdub and he's good , he just turned 19 so wheather or not he'll have the impact that o'Callaghan had for yer selves remains to be seen and often in these kinda situations it could be someone that you wouldn't expect that'll become the next super star.
Who would have thought 3 years ago that Fenton would have had the impact he's had for Dublin when we were expecting Costello to be the man or who would have thought that Paul Murphy would have had the impact he's had for us or that jod would have been a one hit wonder."
Yeh good points, hope he does the bizz as you can't beat watching talent.

13/2 for first goalscorer is great value. Expect him to score 2-3 against a weak Donegal defence. Seanie O'Shea from Kenmare is another player to look out for at centre forward. The O'Shea/Clifford combination will better Declan Sullivan/Gooch combination. Both lads should win 6/7 All Irelands each

He has a long way to go top be even considered in the same breath as a gooch.
Remember that the Kerry minor team were so far ahead of everyone over the last few years scores were easy for Clifford.
There is a huge difference between minor and senior football. Minor backs afford alot of room Clifford thrived on this. Senior is different. He may have a few scores in the league but in the championship he will need 5 years to be ready for the top end.
