Bit of a quiz

Sorry to rain on the parade lads but Q.3 has to be Declan O'Keeffe.
Kerry lost the Junior All-Ireland to Mayo in Ennis in 1997 - was at the game as 3 club mates were playing.
On a positive note the Seniors did beat Cavan the following day.
3: Kerry keeper won what All-Ireland in 1997?
Declan O'Keeffe

I think the question is wrong altogether SooperDooper. I answered Declan O'Keefe first, but Lily was saying that it was the current goalie who won an All Ireland in 1997. I guessed junior, but I think you are right. Kerry won the Junior in 1994, and O'Keefe was in goals, not in 1997. Murphy was probably sub goalie in 1997 though, thereby winning an AI proper

LilyWhiteAllright.....Mayo beat Kerry in the 1997 All Ireland Junior final!

No, AZ Pete the treat (Peter O'Leary) was sub goalie in '97. He didn't get a medal either cos of the 21 medal rule that existed till 1998.
Would have to get the programme from the game to see who was the Kerry goalie in '97 but was probably Murphy.

I dunno so, Lily must have gotten the question wrong. We have all the answers covered anyway

Weren't Brendan Moran and Ger Cremin, Kerry Junior goalies around that time as well?

Kerry bet Cavan in an under 21 All Ireland final in 1996

and Diarmuid Murphy was the goalie for Kerry. Maybe that was the mix up?

LilyWhiteAllright · December 19, 2006, 05:14:27 PM

I'm sure he's there longer than 3 years, but I accept he wasn;t sub goalie in 1997.
