KERRY FOOTBALL:IT APPEARS that former Sydney Swan Tadgh Kennelly may make an appearance for Kerry sooner than most people expected as he joined the Kerry squad for training in Killarney yesterday just five days after returning home.

Kerry welcomed Kennelly back and he is now expected to join the squad for rest of the NFL.

Kerry face a difficult trip to Omagh for a repeat of their All-Ireland final meeting with Tyrone and there is now an possibility that Kennelly might make the squad.
