Jack O'Connor reckons Kerry's 2015 All-Ireland minor champions are the most "complete" team he has ever managed.

O'Connor, who has been involved with a staggering 21 All-Ireland winning teams, was gushing in his praise of a side that wasn't expected to do much at the start of the year.

"The scribes down below were kind of writing us off. But sure we like to prove them wrong," the highly-decorated manager smiled after the Kingdom's facile win over Tipperary.

"We felt ourselves that they were such an honest bunch that they would improve as the year went on and they improved out of all proportion. Anyone would have to admit that.

"They really came together as a team. Of all the crowds I've coached, I think this was the most complete team, in the way they play for each other and how they inter-change positions.

"The half backs are able to come out, the half forwards are able to come back, we had a great balance."
