Former Kerry manager Eamonn Fitzmaurice says he can see Damien Comer having a huge game for Galway in tomorrow’s All-Ireland SFC final against Armagh.

The Connacht champions’ talisman continues to recover from an ankle injury, having started in the semi-final victory over Donegal two weeks ago when he delivered a satisfactory performance.

Speaking on the RTE GAA Podcast ahead of this week ahead of the Sam Maguire Cup decider, Fitzmaurice said he is expecting big things from Comer on the biggest date on the football calendar.

"I watched back the Donegal-Galway game and I think Comer is very close to exploding," said the 2014 All-Ireland winning boss.

"He had a frustrating game but he was very close to having a very good game. He still looked a small bit rusty, he was blowing hard at times from the lack of game time.

"I could see him having a huge game on Sunday. He's very close to getting back to where he can be.

"He has a record, no more than Shane Walsh, where he can pull these games out of nowhere. In the Connacht final he was absolutely exceptional and he'd very little football under his belt at that stage.

"Keep an eye on Comer, he could have a big one on the way."
