Kildare GAA to move house..

Great to see a Dublin ref got the Kildare Football championship final

Billy O'Connell a very good ref, living in Kildare a good while now also.

Three years.

Disappointing that Mick O'Grady and Johnny Byrne are opting out this year along with Daniel Flynn being doubtful (not that any individual should be criticised for giving something more important in their life some priority!)

I presume O'Grady and Byrne would both be regarded as big losses by Kildare lads?

Going to be difficult to continue to progress if losing players.

O'Grady will be a loss. He has developed into a fine full back. Mark Dempsey should come through although it's a big step into the senior ranks.

Byrne finished the year strongly but it's an area where we should have enough options. James Murray, Ruadhan O Giollain and Shea Ryan have the potential to make an impact like Kevin Flynn did this year.

Flynn opting out would be a blow. The consolation would be it would allow us to move Brophy back to the full forward line where he is more at home.
