First Brolly; now Mickey Ned

Mickey Ned O'Sullivan has become the latest high-profile GAA personality to blast Tyrone's tactics.

O'Sullivan, who was famously on the receiving end of a horror tackle from Dublin's Sean Doherty in the 1975 All-Ireland final, let rip after his Kerry minor team lost yesterday's All-Ireland quarter-final to the Red Hands after extra-time.

Tyrone had two players sent off in the closing stages of normal time and O'Sullivan was livid over some of the off-the-ball tackles on his players.

"That is the way they (Tyrone) play and we were ready for it, we were prepared mentally for it," the Kingdom manager said in the Irish Daily Star.

"It's disappointing from the point of view the officers in charge of the game don't address it and stop it.

"(Joe) Brolly is right. It should be stamped out."
