Max Campbell played the full game for Glenties.

It'll be a Donegal win. First round is irrelevant as you're guaranteed another game (would be easier to play a team in the losers round than winners round next day out for Kerry) and wee Jammy will be looking to set down a physiological marker v Kerry if they are to meet again

Ah yeah, Kerry will win pulling up with half a team and not getting out of first gear obviously. Arra sure we'll go down for the run anyway and have the craic with the American tourists.

I'm hoping you meant psychological there wee farneygael or Jim could be facing a lengthy sideline ban!

Not a bit, the Butter Churners will be in full flight in Killarney, with the Healy Raes (Men of the ordinary people) shouting them on.

Hard game to call, but with Donegal injuries and Kerry having players returning from Injury, I would imaging that Kerry management and squad will be all built up to get revenge for the league final and not let us boss them in their own patch in front of their own people. Kerry will more hyped for this than the All Ireland final.

It would be hard for Donegal to go down there and win, Kerry look stronger than last year, lot of depth as the Sunday Game highlighted. Can see Kerry winning by 12 or more, but I think we can rebound and still make the QFs.
